Additional quotes by Fernando Pessoa

Original: Sou todas essa coisas, embora o não queira, no fundo confuso da minha sensibilidade fatal.

We all have two lives: The true, the one we dreamed of in childhood And go on dreaming of as adults in a substratum of mist; the false, the one we love when we live with others, the practical, the useful, the one we end up by being put in a coffin.

Sometimes, when I wake up at night, I feel invisible hands weaving my destiny.
