Ποσες και ποσες μασκες
Πανω απο το προσωπο της ψυχης φοραμε...
Οταν γι' αστειο η ψυχη τη μασκα θελησει να βγαλει
Αραγε ξερει οτι ετσι αφηνει
Το προσωπο γυμνο να φανει;
Η μασκα η πραγματικη, δεν νιωθει τιποτα κατω απ' τη μασκα
Αλλα κοιταζει μες απ' αυτη με ματια κρυμμενα.

Fernando Pessoa

Ποιος θα μ' εκανε ν' ακουσω καποιου την ανθρωπινη φωνη
Που θα ομολογουσε οχι μιαν αμαρτια, αλλα μιαν ατιμια
Που θα διηγιοταν οχι μια βιαιη πραξη, αλλα μια δειλη!
Οχι, ολοι ειναι το Ιδανικο, να, τους ακουω και μου μιλουν.
Υπαρχει κανεις σ' αυτο τον κοσμο να μου ομολογησει
Πως εστω μια φορα ηταν κακος;
Ω πριγκιπες, αδελφια μου,

Βλακες, ειμαι μπουχτισμενος απο ημιθεους!
Που εχει ανθρωπους σ' αυτον τον κοσμο;

Δηλαδη εγω ειμαι ο μονος
Λαθεμενος και κακος σ' αυτη τη γη;

Apenas é compreensível que se peça conselhos aos outros para saber bem, ao agir ao contrário, que somos bem nós, bem em desacordo com a Outragem.

Para o homem vulgar, sentir é viver e pensar é saber viver. Para mim, pensar é viver e sentir não é mais que o alimento de pensar.

I feel closer ties and more intimate bonds with certain characters in books, with certain images I’ve seen in engravings, than with many supposedly real people, with that metaphysical absurdity known as “flesh and blood.” In fact “flesh and blood” describes them very well: they resemble cuts of meat laid out on the butcher’s marble slab, dead creatures bleeding as though still alive, the sirloin steaks and cutlets of Fate.

Pára, meu coração!
Não penses! Deixa o pensar na cabeça!
Ó meu Deus, meu Deus, meu Deus!
Hoje já não faço anos.
Duro.
Somam-se-me dias.
Serei velho quando o for.
Mais nada.
Raiva de não ter trazido o passado roubado na algibeira!...

O tempo em que festejavam o dia dos meus anos!...

Fernando Pessoa

و إذا أحدهم طرق بابي أغْضبُ
لا لأنَه يفسد عليّ ربطة العنق، بل لأنّه يُذكِّرني أن الحياة مستمرة

Fernando Pessoa


Go to quote


كل ما يعرضه الإنسان، يعبر عنه، ليس سوى ملاحظة إلى هامش نص ممحو بالكامل. يمكننا، إلى حد ما، ووفقا لمعنى الملاحظة، أن نستنتج ما يمكن أن يكون عليه معنى النص: بيد أن شكا يبقى حاضرا دائما فكل المعاني الممكنة متعددة.

Fernando Pessoa


Go to quote


All that I've done, thought or been is a series of submissions, either to a false self that I assumed belonged to me because I expressed myself through it to the outside, or to a weight of circumstances that I supposed was the air I breathed. In this moment of seeing, I suddenly find myself isolated, an exile where I'd always thought I was a citizen. At the heart of my thoughts I wasn't I.

Fernando Pessoa


Go to quote


enjoying a tranquillity in which I
won’t write the works I don’t write now, and to keep on
not writing them I’ll come up with even better excuses
than the ones I use today to elude myself. Or I’ll be in an
institution for paupers, happy in my utter defeat, mixed
up with the rabble of would-be geniuses who were no more than beggars with dreams, thrown in with the
anonymous throng of those who didn’t have strength enough to conquer nor renunciation enough to conquer enough to conquer nor renunciation enough to conquer by not competing.

Fernando Pessoa
