More quotes by Fernando Pessoa
You breathe better when you're rich.
Fernando Pessoa
In any spirit that isn't deformed there is the belief in God. In any spirit that is not deformed there isn't the belief in a particular God.
Fernando Pessoa
My boredom with everything has numbed me.
Fernando Pessoa
The inventor of the mirror poisoned the human heart.
Fernando Pessoa
My soul is impatient with itself, as with a bothersome child its restlessness keeps growing and is forever the same. Everything interests me, but nothing holds me. I attend to everything, dreaming all the while.
Fernando Pessoa
I belong to a generation - assuming that this generation includes others besides me - that lost its faith in the gods of the old religions as well as in the gods of modern nonreligions. I reject Jehova as I reject humanity.
Fernando Pessoa
I asked for very little from life, and even this little was denied me.
Fernando Pessoa
Lord, may the pain be ours, And the weakness that it brings, But at least give us the strength, Of not showing it to anyone!
Fernando Pessoa
Everything is absurd.
Fernando Pessoa
But I am not perfect in my way of putting things Because I lack the divine simplicity Of being only what I appear to be.
Fernando Pessoa
God gave the sea the danger and the abyss, but it was in it that He mirrored the sky.
Fernando Pessoa
But my sadness is comforting Because it’s right and natural And because it’s what the soul should feel When it already thinks it exists And the hand pick flowers And the soul takes no notice.
Fernando Pessoa
The value of things is not the time they last, but the intensity with which they occur. That is why there are unforgettable moments and unique people!
Fernando Pessoa
The sea with an end can be Greek or Roman: the endless sea is Portuguese.
Fernando Pessoa
I always live in the present. The future I can't know. The past I no longer have.
Fernando Pessoa
The essence of what I desire is simply this: to sleep away life.
Fernando Pessoa
In the very corner of my soul there is an altar to a different god.
Fernando Pessoa
In this metallic age of barbarians, only a relentless cultivation of our ability to dream, to analyse and to captivate can prevent our personality from degenerating into nothing or else into a personality like all the rest.
Fernando Pessoa
I'd like to be in the country so that I'd could like being in the city.
Fernando Pessoa
Should you ask me if I'm happy, I'll answer that I'm not.
Fernando Pessoa
