We stand united, facing the big responsibility to change our country into a nation of justice, solidarity, humanity and green development.

We have made major reforms in Greece. When I took over after a landslide victory we had a mandate for change and I knew my major focus would be re-organizing the state.

Unfortunately, corruption is widespread in government agencies and public enterprises.

I am proud of being a Greek of the diaspora.

The Greek people do not want to exit the euro, and I believe the Greek people already have shown that they have made major sacrifices to stay within the Eurozone.

Greece's history in the drachma was an up-and-down history, a roller coaster.

This is global governance in the making. But we must agree, and agree to a binding commitment.

Despite the deep reforms we are making, traders and speculators have forced interest rates on Greek bonds to record highs.

There are certain moments in the history of a nation when the choices made define the decades to come.

Everyone needs to carry out his own personal revolution.

I will always be upfront with the Greek people, so we can solve the country's problems together.

Good, don't think. Thinking is highly overrated.

Our only hope lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism

True medicine is to defend human life in any circumstances and not for political reasons or for reasons of any other kind, it is really to help, that is true solidarity.

The use of money is all the advantage there is in having money.

I always say writing is like dreaming, shooting is like living, and editing is like murder, because you take all these gifts that actors give you, and you cut them.

The eye, like a shattered mirror, multiplies the images of sorrow

Sculpture is a series of 3-dimensional shapes which, while fitting together, cause the perception of lines to the viewer, even where they do not exist.

Writing may be either the record of a deed or a deed. It is nobler when it is a deed.

The tennis world is constantly changing. What's true today may be wrong tomorrow. If you don't make progress, others will and you will be overtaken.

Sometimes we win, sometimes we learn.
