People, no matter what they say, mostly pursue the occupation they have always wanted. For example, an official says: "I wish I could be an explorer and live in places behind God's back like a nomad". Then it turns out that he likes to read novels about this subject, but for his part, he really appreciates the safety and relative comfort of his desk.
""Az emberek, akármit is mondjanak, többnyire azt a foglalkozást űzik, amelyre mindig is vágytak. Például azt mondja egy hivatalnok: "Bárcsak felfedező lehetnék, s isten háta mögötti helyeken élhetnék nomád módra". Aztán kiderül, hogy szeret ilyen tárgyú regényeket olvasni, de a maga részéről nagyon is megbecsüli az íróasztala nyújtotta biztonságot és a viszonylagos kényelmet."
