Literature - which is art married to thought, and realisation untainted by reality - seems to me the end towards which all human efforts would have to strive, if it were truly human and not just a welling up of our animal self.

I love Pessoa so much 

but I’ve got a fucking headache

[malovisecovek]

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

“I reject life because it is a prison sentence, I reject dreams as being a vulgar form of escape.” #nowreading The Book Of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa. I’ve learned that Pessoa is one of the most influential Portuguese writers whose ever lived, though that came only after he passed away. A posthumous influence would seem fitting for this book I’m reading now. #pessoa #fernandopessoa #bookofdisquiet

"I seek and don't find myself. I belong to chrysanthemum hours, neatly lined up in flowerpots. (...) I don't know what overly pompous and selective details define my temperament. If I love the ornamental, it must be because I sense something there that's identical to the substance of my soul." -- Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet _________________ #inktober #inktober2016 #doodlinginBrno #allinink #day19 #nineteen #fernandopessoa #bookofdisquiet #vbborjen (at Brno, Czech Republic)
