"Time passes, and life is filled with intense content these weeks. The way people look is different. They are carrying something, looking at the sky with shining eyes, then at the ground with a downcast look. (...) What is this feeling, this concentrated, this dense, this painful and fearful search and wonder? What's in the air, in people's eyes, in women's smiles? The farewell.

Time passes, and life is filled with intense content these weeks. The way people look is different. They are carrying something, looking at the sky with shining eyes, then at the ground with a downcast look. (...) What is this feeling, this concentrated, this dense, this painful and fearful search and wonder? What's in the air, in people's eyes, in women's smiles? The farewell.
""Az idő jár, s az élet e hetekben megtelik tömény tartalommal. Más az emberek pillantása. Neszelnek valamit, az égre néznek csillogó szemekkel, aztán a földre, elborult pillantással. (...) Mi ez az érzés, ez a tömény, ez a sűrű, ez a fájdalmas és félelmes keresgélés és csodálkozás? Mi van a levegőben, az emberek szemében, a nők mosolyában? A búcsú."
