Belcikali yazar Georges Simenon'in olum yildonumu (4 Eylul 1989)
"Aksamin sekizinde daha Kees Popingo'nin kaderi tespit edilmemisti. Demek daha vakit vardi. Vakit vakit diyoruz ama ne vakti, hangi vakit? Yani simdiye kadar yapmis oldugu seyleri yapmayacak miydi, simdiden sonra sanki? Yuzlerce, binlerce gun, otekinden hemen hic farkli olmayarak gecmeyecek miydi sanki?
Simdi ona hayatinin birdenbire degisecegini, konsolun ustunde bir eli sandalyenin arkaligina dayali, ailesinin tam ortasinda yer almis resminin, butun Avrupa gazetelerinde basilacagini soyleselerdi, guler, omuzlarını silker, gecerdi." Trenlerin Gecisini Seyreden Adam
"As far as Kees Popinga was personally concerned, it shoudl be admitted that at eight in the evening there was still time: his fate, among others, had yet to be sealed. But time for what? And what else could he have done other than what he did do, convinced as he was that his actions were of no more consequence than during the thousands and thousands of days that had gone before?
He would have shrugged in disbelief had someone told him that his life was about to change radically, that the photograph on the side table showing him standing in the middle of his family, with one hand casually resting on the back of a chair, would soon be printed in every newspaper across Europe."
