Life lobs us into the air like a stone, and we fly along, saying as we go: You see, I'm moving. Fernando Pessoa
I live always in the present. I know nothing of the future and no longer have a past. The former weighs me down with a thousand possibilities, the latter with the reality of nothingness. Fernando Pessoa
It's like being intoxicated with inertia, drunk but with no enjoyment in the drinking or in the drunkenness. Fernando Pessoa
Let's buy books so as not to read them; let's go to concerts without caring to hear the music or see who's there; let's take long walks because we're sick of walking; and let's spend whole days in the country, just because it bores us. Fernando Pessoa
But someone afflicted by tedium feels himself the prisoner of a futile freedom, in a cell of infinite size. Fernando Pessoa
