" "

Everything that surrounds us becomes part of us, it seeps into us with every experience of the flesh and of life and, like the web of a great Spider, binds us subtly to what is near, ensnares us in a fragile cradle of slow death, where we lie rocking in the wind.

Additional quotes by Fernando Pessoa

حتى أنا الحالم دوما، تأتينى بعض اللحظات التى يهرب الحلم منى فيها؛ حينئذ تبدو الأشياء واضحة بالنسبة إلى، فينزاح ضباب ما يحيط بى. وكل النتوءات المرئية تجرح بحدة جلد روحى. كل القساوات المرئية تؤذى ما بداخلى من قساوات.
كل أعباء وضغوط الأشياء المرئية تثقل على من داخل الروح.
حياتى هى جَلَدى الدائم بحياتى نفسها.
