Fernando Pessoa Quotes / Author of The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa Quotes (Author of The Book of Disquiet).

Victoria police station statue

“Literature is the most agreeable way of ignoring life.”

 

“No intelligent idea can gain general acceptance unless some stupidity is mixed in with it” 

“There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.” 

“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. […]. I’m two, and both keep their distance — Siamese twins that aren’t attached.” 

“My past is everything I failed to be.” 

“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” 

“I’d woken up early, and I took a long time getting ready to exist.”

“We never love anyone. What we love is the idea we have of someone. It’s our own concept—our own selves—that we love.” 

.

“I am nothing.
I’ll never be anything.
I couldn’t want to be something.
Apart from that, I have in me all the dreams in the world.” 

“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!” 

“In order to understand, I destroyed myself.” 

“My soul is a hidden orchestra; I know not what instruments, what fiddlestrings and harps, drums and tamboura I sound and clash inside myself. All I hear is the symphony.” 

“Everything around me is evaporating. My whole life, my memories, my imagination and its contents, my personality – it’s all evaporating. I continuously feel that I was someone else, that I felt something else, that I thought something else. What I’m attending here is a show with another set. And the show I’m attending is myself.”

― Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

The artist’s work My Dog Sighs is proof that there are no limits to art, imagination is enough . What were once cans that were used to store drinks, are now faces. My Dog Sighs lives in Portsmouth, UK, where he conducts his work that is fun and relaxed. The paint cans are of great diversity, Mexican skull, baby and masked some of the characters are portrayed by the artist.
