I fainted during a bit of my life. I regained
consciousness without any memory of what I was, and the memory of
who I was suffers for having been interrupted. There is in me a confused
notion of an unknown interval, a futile effort on the part of my memory
to want to find that other memory. I don’t connect myself with
myself. If I’ve lived, I forget having known it. (Fernando Pessoa
- The Book of Disquiet)
