Als Günter Eich 1947 gebeten wurde, Auskunft über die "innere Emigration" zu geben, sagte er: "Ich habe dem Nationalsozialismus keinen aktiven Widerstand entgegengesetzt. Jetzt so zu tun, als ob, liegt mir nicht." (...) Knapper und ehrlicher kann man nicht sprechen. [G] In 1947, when Günter Eich was requested to provide information about the "inner emigration", he said: "I did not oppose National Socialism by any active resistance. I don't now like to pretend as if I had". (...) One cannot speak more tersely and honestly.
