"Sentir hoy lo que se sintió ayer no es sentir es recordar hoy lo que se sintió ayer ser el cadáver viviente de hoy de lo que ayer se vivió y se perdió."
— Fernando Pessoa
Simplified Meaning:
When you try to feel the same way today as you did yesterday, you are not actually feeling it again; you are just remembering the feelings from yesterday. This turns you into something like a living memory of what has already happened and is gone.
