Handke (Reka Szucs. Hungary.) 18:42 min.
“I haven’t considered the motion of my shadow to be the evidence of the motion of the Earth.
I haven’t considered my fear of darkness to be the evidence of my existence.
I haven’t considered my mind demanding eternal life to be the evidence of my existence after death.
I haven’t considered my disgust of future to be the evidence of my nonexistence after death.
I haven’t considered the easing of pain to be the evidence of time passing.
I haven’t considered my passion for life to be the evidence of time not passing.”
