On the plains of


Hungary On the plains of Hungary the
bell tower in the distance the wrath
of the last Angelus no one follows on the

land there is no crops but stones
no man and his wife put down the basket and
take off the hat Carefully stick the fork on the ridge It is
customary In the twilight of the twilight, the sore neck is
bent, and the sore neck is concentrated in vespers. Only the man who walks hard in the
dusty fog with his old age and the overflowing death and the skin-filled wind wrestling with the wind . The old horse wears a swollen cap on the heels of the old horse and looks at the chariots of Tszgaon passing merrily. It knows that it can't run even after unloading the empty cargo . The man pacing the ruts on the Hungarian plains has come to the end of the new year. He looked down at two wild dogs barking for aged bones A pure white minaret in the usual place of the rainbow brought a rare crowd of worshippers No drums, no bugles , no one knew when the war started and now what is the ceasefire Or before the decisive battle, the long-awaited decisive battle may not come It will be dark and the wind will always be as strong as it was on the first day Those who can't wait for the Sabbath to leave and return to their homes without water and fire are marching forever on the endless plains of Hungary

The Turin Horse quotes

  • Bernhard: Theirs is the moment... nature, infinite silence.

  • Narrator: In Turin on the 3rd of January 1889, Friedrich Nietzsche steps out of the doorway of number six, Via Carlo Albert, perhaps to take a stroll, perhaps to go by the post office to collect his mail. Not far from him, the driver of a hansome cab is having trouble with a stubborn horse. Despite all his urging, the horse refuses to move, whereupon the driver - Giuseppe? Carlo? Ettore? - loses his patience and takes his whip to it. Nietzsche comes up to the throng and puts an end to the brutal scene caused by the driver, by this time foaming at the mouth with rage. For the solidly built and full-moustached gentleman suddenly jumps up to the cab and throws his arms around the horse's neck, sobbing. His landlord takes him home, he lies motionless and silent for two days on a divan until he mutters the obligatory last words "Mutter, ich bin dumm!" and lives for another ten years, silent and demented, under the care of his mother and sisters. We do not know what happened to the horse.
