English (Source)

For a long time, we believe that Fate comes in like thunder, with Greek fire, divine arrow, horns and oboes. Then one day we meet him and find out that he has much better manners. Lung cancer, misery, humiliation, deadly love appear quite quietly, knocking as if, asking in a low voice: "Are you free?" And then they enter.

Sokáig azt hisszük, hogy a Végzet mennydörgésszerűen köszönt be, görögtűzzel, istennyilával, kürtökkel és oboákkal. Aztán egy napon megismerkedünk vele, s megtudjuk, hogy sokkal jobb modorú. A tüdőrák, a nyomorúság, a megalázás, a halálos szerelem egészen csendesen jelentkeznek, mintegy kopogtatnak, halk hangon kérdik: "Szabad?" S aztán belépnek.
