Sir Arthur Clark, British Science Fiction writer and Inventor:
Had Christianity and Turkish occupation not interrupted the Hellenic Civilization from its leading progress in Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics, the Hellenes (Greeks) would have been in the Space 600 years before the Americans. Also the Industrial Revolution would have begun perhaps 1000 years before Columbus. And thus nowadays we wouldn’t be trying only to reach the moon, but we would already be in other planets as well.
Albert Camus, French writer and philosopher:
Hellas (Greece) first taught us that free men can be brave and that no defeat is meant to last forever. This small nation is proven worthy of its history.
Joseph Goebbels, Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany:
I forbid the press to degrade the Hellenes, to spread false bad rumours about them. Fuehrer admires their bravery. (From his personal diary, April 9, 1941).
Hitler, to the German Parliament, 4 May, 1941:
History’s Justice makes me admit that, among our enemies, the Hellene Soldier Ueber Alles, fought with the most courage. He surrendered only when the continuation of the resistance was not possible any more and when he had no reason not to surrender. However, he fought so courageously, that even his enemies cannot deny their respect. Consequently, the Hellenes war prisoners, were set immediately free, because of the heroic stand of these soldiers.
