"Τι είναι σιωπή και φωνή ταυτοχρόνως; Είναι ο χρόνος. Ναι ο χρόνος είναι και μολονότι μας εμπεριέχει και μας διαπερνά, παραμένει για μας άφωνος και σιωπηλός. Όταν όμως γεράσουμε και μάθουμε ν’ ακούμε προς την αντίστροφη πορεία, τότε θα αντιληφθούμε ένα ελαφρύ μουρμούρισμα κι αυτό είναι ο χρόνος που έχουμε αφήσει. Κι όσο περισσότερο ακούμε προς την αντίστροφη φορά, τόσο γινόμαστε και πιο ικανοί στην ακοή, τόσο σαφέστερα αντιλαμβανόμαστε τη φωνή των χρόνων, τη σιωπή του χρόνου"-Hermann Broch, The Guiltless
