Strictly speaking, they're nothing."
"So where do they come from ?"
"They exist only because people give them the opportunity to do so. Naturally, they seize that opportunity. Now that people are giving them a chance to rule their lives, they're naturally taking advantage of that too."
"What would happen if they couldn't steal any more time ?"
"They'd disappear into thin air, which is where they come from." Professor Hora took his glasses back and pocketed them. "Unfortunately," he continued after a pause, "they already have plenty of human accomplices. That's the worst part."

The first isn't there, though he'll come beyond doubt.
The second's departed, so he's not about.
The third and the smallest is right on the spot,
and manage without him the others could not.
Yet the third is a factor with which to be reckoned
because the first brother turns into the second.
