There is for me—there was—a wealth of meaning in a thing so ridiculous as a door key, a nail on the wall, a cat’s whiskers. There is to me a fullness of spiritual suggestion in a fowl with its chickens strutting across the road. There is to me a meaning deeper than human fears in the smell of sandalwood, in the old tins on a dirt heap, in a match box lying in the gutter, in two dirty papers which, on a windy day, will roll and chase each other down the street.~ Always Astonished by Fernando Pessoa (via hyeyeonee)
