When I see the blindness and misery of man, and look at this whole silent universe, and a man left alone in this corner of the universe, wandering in the dark, who has no idea who put him here, why he is here, what he will become when he dies, and is unable to know anything - a terror takes over me, like someone who has been exposed to a terrifying, deserted island in a dream, and then when he wakes up, he has no idea where he is, but there is no way to escape from it.

Hungarian

"Ha látom az ember vakságát és nyomorúságát, és elnézem ezt az egész néma világmindenséget, s a mindenség e zugában magára hagyott, sötétben tévelygő embert, akinek sejtelme sincsen róla, ki tette ide, miért van itt, mivé lesz halálában, és képtelen bármit is tudni - olyan rémület vesz rajtam erőt, mint akit álmában félelmetes, puszta szigetre tettek ki, s aztán mikor felébred, fogalma sincsen róla, hol van, de nincs módja többé onnan elmenekülni."
