"Without the absent ones, there would be nothing.
Without the fugitives, nothing is firm.
Without the forgotten, nothing for certain.
The vanished are just.
That’s how we’ll fade, too."
Without the fugitives, nothing is firm.
Without the forgotten, nothing for certain.
The vanished are just.
That’s how we’ll fade, too."
— Hans Magnus Enzensberger, from “The Vanished” (translated by Rita Dove and Fred Viebahn)
