Quotes by Tanja Maljartschuk  (?)

“I suddenly began to think about time as the thing that unites an endless rosary of senseless events; and also about the fact that only in the sequence of these events is there meaning; and that it's not God, not love, not beauty, not the greatness of intellect that determines this world, but only time -- the flow of time and the glimmering of human life within it.
Human life is its sustenance. Time consumes everything living by the ton, like a gigantic blue whale consumes microscopic plankton, milling and chewing it into a homogenous mass, so that one life disappears without a trace, giving another, the next life, a chance. Yet it wasn't the disappearance that grieved me the most, but the tracelessness of it. I thought to myself: I've already got one foot there, out in complete forgottenness.”
Tanja Maljartschuk, Forgottenness

“The fragility of human life in the face of the omnipotence of time can be felt most in the dusty pages of daily newspapers.”
Tanja Maljartschuk, Forgottenness

“Роки минають блискавично, коли не цінуєш власне життя”
Tanja Maljartschuk, Frösche im Meer
