“The moment we step out onto the street, we are lost. We have stepped out of time. Time exists when we sit at home, the clock ticks or we watch TV. Then only adverts splice into time. And when we are lost, we immediately find ourselves in a labyrinth; there is no question having made a mistake, or having forgotten the way, no possibilities of correction.” – Ferenc Szijj

“I often found the clouds that drifted into the Berlin sky threatening, somehow so huge, and grave, even really dark sometimes, and if I recall correctly they were usually very sudden to appear, one could almost say, like a fleet of bombers. Surprising, because I am otherwise very fond of clouds, I do delight in them, in fact in a way I hunt for them from my kitchen window, or else I would see only the barren wall across the yard.” – Ferenc Szijj
