This is a beautiful and very moving tribute.  Thank you, Kostas, for sharing with us.  
Great nations do not fall because of external aggression; they first erode and decay inwardly, so that, like rotten fruit, they fall of themselves.  The strength of a country is the sum total of the moral strength of the individuals in that country.
