Fernando Pessoa

What men have called God exists, but not as a personality.

What men have called God exists, but not as a personality. It is the containing of all properties, and so may be said to contain them in their perfection, as containing only the possibility of them. But it cannot be said that this is a personality of them.

But it cannot be said that this is a personality. lt is the great Possible and no more. And even were we determined to make this a personality still it is not the ultimate and only reality. The only reality is Being.

            Being-in-se

Being as known — not-being

(The possible?)

            Ideas — Things

              The Real

Real = Ideal

Real (R = 1) = Possible

1906?
