Fernando Pessoa
“...of having forgotten the colour of loves and the taste of hatreds. We thought we were immortal.”
Fernando Pessoa

Fernando Pessoa
“At other times I wake up from the half sleep I'd fallen into, and hazy images with poetical and unpredictable colours play out their silent show to my inattention.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa
“The sunset of all emotions, myself yellowing, subdued to grey sadness in my external self-awareness”
Pessoa

Fernando Pessoa
“Let's develop theories patiently and honestly thinking them out, in order to promptly act against them - acting and justifying our actions with new theories that condemn them. Let's cut a path in life then go immediately against that path. Let's adopt all the poses and gestures of something we aren't and don't even wish to be, and don't even wish to taken for being.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa
“I dreamily and digestively drowse. I have time, between synaesthesias. And it's extraordinary to think that, if I were asked right now what I want for this short life, I could think nothing better than these long slow minutes, this absence of thought and emotion, of action and almost o sensation itself, this inner sunset of dissipated desire. And then it occurs to me, almost without thinking, that most if not all people live like this, with greater or lesser consciousness, moving forward or standing still, but still with the very same indifference towards ultimate aims, the same renunciation of their personal goals, the same watered-down life.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet
