Sadly I write in my quiet room, alone as I have always been, alone as I will always be. And I wonder if my apparently negligible voice might not embody the essence of thousands of voices, the longing for self expression of thousands of lives, the patience of millions of souls resigned like my own to their daily lot, their useless dreams, and their hopeless hopes.
Fernando PessoaI asked for very little from life, and even this little was denied me.
Fernando PessoaWhat does a river know about this and what does a tree know?
And I, who am no more than those, what do I know?
Every time I look at things and think about what men think about them,
I laugh like how a brook sounds cool on a stone.

Fernando PessoaTener opiniones es estar vendido a uno mismo. No tener opiniones es existir. Tener todas las opiniones es ser poeta.
Fernando PessoaStichwörter: opinions self-awareness poetry-quotes
I'm me, and what the hell can I do about it!
...
I, the solemn investigator of useless things...
That’s why I read, as a stranger,
My being as if it were pages.
Not knowing what will come
And forgetting what has passed,
I note in the margin of my reading
What I thought I felt.
Rereading, I wonder: “Was that me?”
God knows, because he wrote it.
I look at myself but I'm missing. I know myself: it’s not me.
Fernando PessoaStichwörter: knowing-oneself
Everything interests me, but nothing holds me.
Fernando PessoaBetter and happier those who, recognizing that everything is fictitious, write the novel before someone writes it for them and, like Machiavelli, don courtly garments to write in secret.
