Fernando Pessoa
“I've always rejected being understood. To be understood is to prostitute oneself. I prefer to be taken seriously for what I'm not, remaining humanly unknown, with naturalness and all due respect”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa
“I suffer from life and from other people. I can’t look at reality face to face. Even the sun discourages and depresses me. Only at night and all alone, withdrawn, forgotten and lost, with no connection to anything real or useful — only then do I find myself and feel comforted.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa
“La libertad es la posibilidad del aislamiento. Eres libre si puedes alejarte de los hombres, sin que te obligue a buscarlos la necesidad de dinero, o la necesidad gregaria, o el amor, o la gloria, o la curiosidad, que no puede encontrar alimento en el silencio y la soledad. Si te resulta imposible vivir solo, has nacido esclavo. Puedes tener toda la grandeza de espíritu, toda la grandeza del alma: eres un esclavo noble o un siervo inteligente: no eres libre. Y la tragedia no es cosa tuya, porque la tragedia de haber nacido así no es cosa tuya, sino solamente del Destino. Ay de ti, no obstante, si la opresión de la vida, ella misma te obliga a ser esclavo. Ay de ti si, habiendo nacido libre, capaz de bastarte y aislarte, la penuria te obliga a convivir. Ésa sí es tu tragedia y la que llevas contigo.”
Fernando Pessoa
