Fernando Pessoa quote #111 from The Book of Disquiet

I had come from wondrous lands from landscapes more enchanting than life but only to myself did I ever mention these lands and I said nothing about the landscapes which I saw in dreams. My feet stepped like theirs over the floorboards and the flagstones but my heart was far away even if it beat close by false master of an estranged and exiled body.

Fernando Pessoa quote #121 from The Book of Disquiet

Perhaps he still hopes. If theres any justice in the Gods injustice then may they let us keep our dreams even when theyre impossible and may our dreams be happy even when theyre trivial....Every dream is the same dream for theyre all dreams. Let the Gods change my dreams but not my gift for dreaming.
