Quando di notte alzavamo la testa verso la luna, percepivamo in noi la vastità del mondo, la sentivamo brillare immobile sopra il brulichio ininterrotto di miliardi di individui. La coscienza si dilatava nello spazio totale del pianeta, verso altre galassie. L'infinito smetteva di essere immaginario. Ecco perché era inconcepibile dirsi che un giorno saremmo morti.

I wander as I walk straight ahead. When it's time, I show up at the office like everyone else. When it's not time, I go to the river to gaze at the river, like everyone else. I'm no different. And behind all this, O sky my sky, I secretly constellate and have my infinity.

Anything and everything, depending on how one sees it, is a marvel or a hindrance, an all or a nothing, a path or a problem. To see something in constantly new ways is to renew and multiply it. That is why the contemplative person, without ever leaving his village, will nevertheless have the whole universe at his disposal. There's infinity in a cell or a desert. One can sleep cosmically against a rock.
~ Fernando Pessoa

Dal mio quarto piano sull'infinito, nella plausibile intimità della sera che sopraggiunge, a una finestra che dà sull'inizio delle stelle, i miei sogni si muovono con l'accordo di un ritmo, con una distanza rivolta verso viaggi a paesi ignoti, o ipotetici, o semplicemente impossibili.
~ Fernando Pessoa
Tenho em mim todos os sonhos do mundo
~ Fernando Pessoa

Los clasificadores de cosas, que son aquellos hombres de ciencia cuya ciencia consiste sólo en clasificar, ignoran, en general, que lo clasificable es infinito y por lo tanto no se puede clasificar. Pero en lo que consiste mi pasmo es en que ignoren la existencia de clasificables desconocidos, cosas del alma y de la conciencia que se encuentran en los intersticios del conocimiento.
~ Fernando Pessoa
L'animale teme la morte perché vive, e anche l'uomo, e perché gli è ignota. Solo a me è dato di temerla con orrore perché conosco tutta la sua estensione e il suo mistero, perché misuro la sua infinità oscurità
~ Fernando Pessoa
