"Time does not protect the treasure - no: it chews it apart like a child chews a toy. Treasures live differently, they are invisible: they are nailed to the inner temple of the soul, like a thousand pillars, ram's horns and rim. The immortal work is timeless.

Time does not protect the treasure - no: it chews it apart like a child chews a toy. Treasures live differently, they are invisible: they are nailed to the inner temple of the soul, like a thousand pillars, ram's horns and rim. The immortal work is timeless.
"Hungarian
"A kincset az idő nem őrzi - nem: szétrágja, mint a kócjankót a gyermek. A kincsek másként élnek, jeltelen: a lélek belső templomán szögellnek, mint ezer pillér, kos-szarv és perem. A halhatatlan mű időtelen."
