-
Mark is wholly concentrated on writing
and remains silent. No, not as a lifeless image,
but as someone who is still alive: he moves and breathes,
even though he remains immobile as he is quietly writing.

-
Markus, der die Absicht hat zu schreiben,
bleibt schweigend; nicht aber wie ein lebloses Bild,
sondern wie noch lebend bewegt er sich und atmet,
auch wenn er regungslos festsitzt, still schreibend.
