Alberto Caeiro, The Collected Poems of Alberto Caeiro

"It’s an already inside outside,The philosophers say it’s the soulBut it’s not the soul: it’s the animal or the man itselfIn its way of existing."

"What comes, when it comes, will be what it is."

"It’s an already inside outside,The philosophers say it’s the soulBut it’s not the soul: it’s the animal or the man itselfIn its way of existing."

"I'm one of my sensations."

"Accept the universeAs the gods gave it to you.If the gods wanted to give you something elseThey’d have done it.If there are other matters and other worldsThere are."
