To the memory of Res lost, who was an outstanding scientist and a truly exceptional personality
Aber sage nur niemand, dafJ uns das Schicksal trenne! Wir sinds, wir! Wir haben un sere Lust daran, uns in die N acht des U nbekannten, in die kalte Fremde irgend einer andern Welt zu stiirzen, und war' es moglich, wir verliej3en der Sonne Gebiermten iiber des Irrsterns Grenzen hinaus.
(Friedrich H6lderlin, Hyperion, 1. Band, 1. Buch) But never let it be said that Fate puts us asunder. We do, we ourselves, we delight in flinging ourselves into the dark unknown, into the cold abroad of some other world, we'd leave the zone of the sun altogether if we could and career beyond the frontiers of the wandering star.
(Hyperion by F. H6lderlin, Vol. 1, Part 1, 1797) translation taken from D. Constantine, "H6lderlin", Clarendon Press, Oxfor
