Culture means struggle without hope of victory, struggle for one´s spiritual freedom, struggle against an eviroment that wants to orientate thought. "Everyone comes to know by means of his own individual mind, but the truth he hopes to find is valid for all. What is valid only for one side , one faith, one nation is ot the truth that is the eternal goal of the human spririt. The entire truth lies in the endless human striving for truth."

He had everything that makes a writer a writer: the ability to see in things and events what ordinarily goes unnoticed, and to write about them with a vivid wit and freshness. He was skilled at describing even commonplace events in the most unexpected ways , and at giving a new sense to old stories. He had the gift of epic narrative as well as lyrical observation. He kept a close eye on the consequences of our actions and on the suicidal streaks of our civilization. He also had an extraordinary linguistic sense, and a close reading of his eorks still delights the reader with its richness, presision, and of course the language itself.
