“It was well after midnight when I put the thick document called ‘Invitation to Tender for a concession to provide GSM services in Hungary’ on my bedside cabinet. The document had been reissued on October 15, 1992. I had quickly scanned, and hopefully absorbed, the main points. The tender was organized as a beauty contest and the winning consortia would be allowed to participate in the auction to be held next year. There were two concessions up for grabs, one that would surely go to the existing NMT operator Westel (US West & Bell Atlantic) and one for a new party. It was shut eye time now, I was tired. The flight to Budapest would leave early in the morning, so I had only a few hours to rest.”

“Eszembe jut, ahogy megpendítette ezeket a mi tragikus bohózatba illő hadüzeneteinket - például az oroszoknak meg az amerikaiaknak. Hogy azt hitték a politikusaink, elég csupán hepciáskodva hadat üzenniük, a győzelmet meg majd vívják ki nekünk ezek a szorgos németek.
És a dolog csak húzódik, nyúlik a végtelenségbe. Meddig kell ezt még bírni, Artúr?, kérdi Heltai. Meddig kell bírni még a zsidóságot, a hideget, az éhezést, az elsötétítést, a bombázást, a hajléktalanságot, a munkátlanságot, a szegénységet, a betegséget meg a poloskát? És mindezt csak azért, mert - pusztán a németek iránti udvariasságból - megüzentük Amerikának és Oroszországnak a háborút. A háború pedig nem üzent vissza, hanem személyesen idejött. Senki sem gondolt arra, hogy ez lehetséges lesz. Mindenki azt hitte, hogy ezt a németek elintézik, ők harcolnak majd, mi pedig a tribünről, páholyból drukkolunk nekik.”
― Hajó a ködben

Meddig kell bírni még a zsidóságot, a hideget, az éhezést, az elsötétítést, a bombázást, a hajléktalanságot, a munkátlanságot, a szegénységet, a betegséget meg a poloskát?
