"I have no ambitions and no desires.
To be a poet is not my ambition,
It's my way of being alone."
Alberto Caeiro: "The Keeper of Sheep"
"The poet is a faker
Who's so good at his act
He even fakes the pain
Of pain he feels in fact"
Pessoa-himself: "Autopsychography"
~Fernando António Nogueira Pessoa
