“Tomorrow I too — this feeling and thinking soul, the universe I am to myself — yes, tomorrow I too will be someone who no longer walks these streets, someone others will evoke with a vague: ‘I wonder what’s become of him?’ And everything I do, everything I feel, everything I experience, will be just one less passer-by on the daily streets of some city or other.”
— Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet
