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
Per gyvenim tave veda tavyje esanti, itrokusi mokymosi, aisminga dvasin btyb, kuri ir yra tavo asmenybs esm. Nenusigrk nuo jokios galimos ateities prie tai nesitikins, kad i jos nra ko imokti. Tu visuomet gali laisvai apsisprsti. Gali persigalvoti ir pasirinkti kitoki ateit arba kitoki praeit.
Richard Bach
