To love is to tire of being alone; it is therefore a cowardice, a betrayal of ourselves. (It is exceedingly important that we not love.)
Fernando PessoaEverything around me is evaporating. My whole life, my memories, my imagination and its contents, my personality - it's all evaporating. I continuously feel that I was someone else, that I felt something else, that I thought something else. What I'm attending here is a show with another set. And the show I'm attending is myself.
Fernando PessoaAfter the rains departed the skies and settled on earth - clear skies; moist brilliant earth - greater clarity returned to life alone with the blue above and made the world below rejoice with the freshness of the recent rain. It left heaven in our souls and a freshness in our hearts.
Fernando PessoaIn the ordinary jumble of my literary drawer, I sometimes find texts I wrote ten, fifteen, or even more years ago. And many of them seem to me written by a stranger: I simply do not recognize myself in them. There was a person who wrote them, and it was I. I experienced them, but it was in another life, from which I just woke up, as if from someone else's dream.
Fernando PessoaA being who, as I grew older, lost imagination, emotion, a type of intelligence, a way of feeling things - all that which, while it made me sorry, did not horrify me. But what am I experiencing when I read myself as if I were someone else? On which bank am I standing if I see myself in the depths?

I go forward slowly, dead, and my vision is no longer mine, it’s nothing: it’s only the vision of the human animal who, without wanting, inherited Greek culture, Roman order, Christian morality, and all the other illusions that constitute the civilization in which I feel.
Where can the living be?
Ao toque adormecido da morfina
Perco-me em transparências latejantes
E numa noite cheia de brilhantes,
Ergue-se a lua como a minha Sina.
Pertenço a um gênero de portugueses
Que depois de estar a Índia descoberta
Ficaram sem trabalho. A morte é certa.
Tenho pensado nisto muitas vezes.
O meu sentimento é cinza
Da minha imaginação,
E eu deixo cair a cinza
No cinzeiro da Razão.

Se te queres matar, porque não te queres matar?
Ah, aproveita! que eu, que tanto amo a morte e a vida,
Se ousasse matar-me, também me mataria...
Ah, se ousares, ousa!
