Suddenly, as if a medical fate had operated on me from an old blindness with great sudden, ergo results of my anonymous life, for the clear knowledge of how I exist. And I see that all that I have done, all that I have thought, all that I have been, is a kind of deception and madness. I marvel at what I managed not to see. Strange as I was and I see that I am not after all.
Fernando Pessoa
