Additional quotes by Fernando Pessoa

أغتاظ. أرغب في فهم كل شيء، معرفة كل شيء، إكمال كل شيء، قول كل شيء، التمتع بكل شيء، التألم من كل شيء، نعم، التألم من كل شيء. لكن لا شيء من هذا كله، لا شيء. أنهكتني فِكرة ما أرغب في الحصول عليه، ما استطيعه، ما أحسّه. حياتي حلم كبير.

Without madness what is man
But a wholesome beast,
Postponed corpse that begets?

Escrever é esquecer. A literatura é a maneira mais agradável de ignorar a vida
