Every man who deserves to be famous knows it is not worth the trouble.
Todo o homem que merece ser célebre sabe que não vale a pena sê-lo.

More quotes by Fernando Pessoa
Was it worthwhile?
Everything is worthwhile
if the soul is not small.
Ah, to be you while being I!
To have your glad unconsciousness
And be conscious of it!
