Sometimes I muse about how wonderful it would be if I could string all my dreams together into one continuous life, a life consisting of entire days full of imaginary companions and created people.
Fernando Pessoa (13 June 1888 – 30 November 1935) was a Portuguese poet and writer, most of whose work was published posthumously. He wrote frequently under heteronyms, alter egos with developed personalities, biographies, jobs, habits, attitudes, addresses, etc., who sometimes quoted and interacted with each other and other people.

In me all affections take place on the surface, but sincerely. I've always been an actor, and in earnest. Whenever I've loved, I've pretended to love, pretending it even to myself.

أنا أرثي حال النجوم التي تشع منذ هذا القدر الكبير من السنين هذا القدر من السنين ... أنا أرثي حال النجوم. أليس هناك أيّ تعب في الأشياء، في جميع الأشياء ، مثل تعب السيقان والمناكب ؟ التعب من الكينونة، من الوجود، من الوجود لا غير، الالتماع المرح أو الكئيب ... ألا يكون الانتظار في النهاية لكل وجود وليس الموت، بل شيء آخر كما لو أنه نهاية أخرى ؟ أو تبرير عظيم، شيء شبيه بالغفران ؟
