“A vida passa e não fica, nada deixa e nunca regressa.” PoesiaPortugalFernando PessoaPortuguese LiteratureRicardo Reis Book:Odes Source: Odes
“With one eye on the past, some see which they cannot see, whilst others in the future see that which cannot be seen. Why go so far, look closer! What is freedom? The day is here! This is the hour, the moment; and this moment is who we are and that is that. Forever flowing, the eternal hour reveals our insignificance. In a single gasp we live and die, so size the day, for the day is simply who you are.” Portuguese LiteratureRicardo Reis Author:Ricardo Reis
