" "What can I expect from myself? My sensation in all their horrible acuity, and a profound awareness of feeling. A sharp mind that only destroys me, and an unusual capacity for dreaming to keep me entertained. A dead will and a reflection that cradles it, like a living child.

Additional quotes by Fernando Pessoa
العالم مخلوق لمن ولدوا كي يمتلكوه
لا لمن يحلم بأنه قادر على امتلاكه ،
ولو كان على صواب
لقد حلمت بأكثر مما حلم به نابليون نفسه
ضممت إلى صدري المفترض إنسانيات
أكثر مما ضم المسيح
شيدت في السر فلسفات أكثر من كل ما كتب أي كانط.
لكن كنت وسأكون دائماً مجرد ساكن غرفة في سطح
ولو لم أعش فيھا..
سأبقى دائماً من لم يُخلق لذلك
