Fernando Pessoa
“The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.”
Fernando Pessoa

Amedeo Modigliani
“When I know your soul, I will paint your eyes”
Amedeo Modigliani

Simone de Beauvoir
“Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Book of Positive Quotations

Immanuel Kant
“If man is not to stifle his human feelings, he must practice kindness towards animals, for he who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.”
Immanuel Kant

“All I want is blackness. Blackness and silence.

(The actual Sylvia Plath quote from "The Moon and the Yew Tree" is:

"And the message of the yew tree is blackness –
blackness and silence.")”
from the movie "Sylvia" (2003), incorrectly attributed to Sylvia Plath
