"

Man lives and knows only so much about God as a distant, very powerful ruler whom he must respect, but he has no personal relationship with. One day you will meet Him. In our civilization, this encounter can sometimes take place on the side of the road, in a coffee house or on the underground railway, because God appears in profane places perhaps more often than in the church.

Hungarian

"Az ember él, s csak annyit tud Istenről, mint egy távoli, nagyon hatalmas uralkodóról, akit tisztelni tartozik ugyan, de nincsen hozzá személyes köze. Egy napon megismerkedik Vele. A mi civilizációnkban ez a találkozás néha útszéli körülmények között is történhet, egy kávéházban vagy a földalatti vasúton, mert Isten a profán helyeken talán gyakrabban jelenik meg, mint a templomban."
