"

No one can know his future; it floats before us like the autumn fog that rises from the marsh. The birds fly in it mindlessly with their wings that draw curves up and down and do not recognize each other, the dove the buzzard, the buzzard the dove, and neither of them knows whether he is far from death or his wings are close to him.

Hungarian

"A jövendőjét senki sem tudhatja; úgy lebeg előttünk, mint az őszi köd, mely felszáll a mocsárból. Ész nélkül szálldosnak benne fel s alá íveket rajzoló szárnnyal a madarak és nem ismerik fel egymást, a galamb az ölyvet, az ölyv a galambot, és egyik sem tudja: távol jár-e a haláltól vagy közel jár hozzá szárnya."
