Convicções profundas só as têm as criaturas superficiais. Os que não reparam para as coisas quase que as veem apenas para não esbarrar com elas, esses são sempre da mesma opinião, são os íntegros e os coerentes. A política e a religião gastam dessa lenha, e é por isso que ardem tão mal entre a Verdade e a Vida.

Additional quotes by Fernando Pessoa

I not only feel that the lines I write are unsatisfactory, I know that I will find any lines I write in the future equally unsatisfactory
