"Man's companion: missing. Not only if you have lost him in death, but also if you have never met him. Never, in his entire life!... The person without a companion is used to being alone, to living spiritually among strangers, to loneliness, like an Eskimo to the polar cold - but the soul still knows that a piece is missing: the other half is missing . And it hurts not only when we lose it, but also when we don't find it!

Man's companion: missing. Not only if you have lost him in death, but also if you have never met him. Never, in his entire life!... The person without a companion is used to being alone, to living spiritually among strangers, to loneliness, like an Eskimo to the polar cold - but the soul still knows that a piece is missing: the other half is missing . And it hurts not only when we lose it, but also when we don't find it!
""Az embernek a társa: hiányzik. Nemcsak akkor, ha a halállal elvesztette, de akkor is, ha még sohasem találkozott vele. Soha, egész életében!... A társtalan ember hozzászokott ugyan, hogy egyedül van, hogy lelkileg idegenek között él, megszokja a magányt, mint eszkimó a sarki hideget - de a lélek mégis tudja, hogy hiányzik belőle egy darab: hiányzik a másik fele. És ez nem csak akkor fáj, ha elveszítjük, hanem akkor is, ha nem találjuk meg!"
