Quote by Giannis Delimitsos

“Many ask: “Why are we so insincere, why are we so hypocrites?”. Well, it is because this is how human nature works. If there was a time and a place where human beings were 100% of the time honest, who always said what they had in mind and who didn’t care to cover their shortcomings by displaying a better persona than the “real” one, it is long since gone, wiped out from the relentless force of natural selection.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 9 The case of life is a case of kindness, The case of reform is a case of unself. The case of growth is a case of correction, The case of joy is a case beyond the self. To unself the soul is to unfold happiness, To disavow destiny is to write destiny. To bring down the walls is to build bridges, To refute inhumanity is to practice humanity. Upon our indifference jungle sustains, Upon our accountability worlds unfold. Requirement of civilization is plain 'n simple, Appearance is nothing if hands don't unfold. You know why we have two hands 'n one mouth, So that we may stop arguing ‘n help each other out.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 62 Belief sustains a person, But behavior sustains a society. Belief has nothing to do with truth, It is just a matter of mental necessity. Often our belief defies all reason, That's absolutely okay to a great extent. What's not okay is to impose it on others, To sentence others to our imprisonment. I believe, that my teacher watches over me, Even though he walks the earth no more. This belief has nothing to do with your life, But it helps me walk past my crippling woe. All beliefs are good beliefs with or without reason, If they help you in life to become a better person.”
