‘A young child sits building sandcastles in a sandbox. It constantly builds something new, something which it treasures for only a moment before it knocks it all down again. In the same way Time has been given a planet to play with. This is where the history of the world is written, this is where the events are engraved – and smoothed over again. This is where life bubbles like in a witch’s cauldron. One day we’ll be modelled here, too – from the same brittle material as our ancestors. The wind of Time blows through us, carries us and is us – then drops us again. We are conjured up and tricked away. There is always something lying and brewing in anticipation of taking our place. Because we’re not standing on solid ground, we’re not even standing on sand – we are sand.’

‘Time doesn’t pass, Hans Thomas, and Time doesn’t tick. We are the ones who pass, and our watches tick. Time eats its way through history as silently and relentlessly as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. It topples great civilisations, gnaws at ancient monuments, and wolfs down generation after generation. That’s why we speak of the “ravages of time.” Time chews and chomps – and we are the ones between its jaws.’

‘For a fleeting moment, we are part of a furious swarm. We run around on earth as though it was the most obvious thing of all. You saw how the ants crawled and crept up at the Acropolis! But everything will disappear. It will disappear and be replaced with new multitudes, because people are always standing in line. Shapes and masks come and go, and new ideas are always popping up. Themes are never repeated, and a composition never shows up twice … There is nothing as complicated and precious as a person, my boy – but we are treated like trash.’
