Additional quotes by Luís de Camões

Vão os anos decendo, e já do Estio
Há pouco que passar até o Outono;
A Fortuna me faz o engenho frio,
Do qual já não me jacto nem me abono;
Os desgostos me vão levando ao rio
Do negro esquecimento e eterno sono...

My song shall spread where ever there are men,
If wit and art will so much guide my pen.

Eis aqui, quase cume da cabeça
De Europa toda, o Reino Lusitano,
Onde a terra se acaba e o mar começa.

Porém, pera cantar de vosso gesto A composição alta e milagrosa Aqui falta saber, engenho e arte. - Luís de Camões
