We don't even know what they will consider big and important, and what they will consider small and ridiculous. Were not the discoveries of Copernicus or Columbus at first seen as useless and ridiculous, and were not the mad scribbles of an eccentric regarded as a real revelation? And it is also possible that our life, in which we are doing so well, will later be judged as strange, uncomfortable, meaningless, not pure enough, and perhaps even sinful.

Hungarian

"Mi nem is tudjuk, mit tartanak majd nagynak és fontosnak, és mit kicsinynek és nevetségesnek. Vajon Kopernikusz vagy Kolumbusz felfedezését nem látták-e kezdetben haszontalannak és nevetségesnek, és nem tartották-e egy különc őrült firkáit valóságos kinyilatkoztatásnak? És az is lehet, hogy majd a mi életünket, melyben olyan jól megvagyunk, később különösnek, kényelmetlennek, értelmetlennek, nem eléggé tisztának, sőt talán bűnösnek is ítélik."
