#EuropeDays #Brussels #NewProject Honoured to have met Count Herman Van Rompuy, former President of the European Council, during today’s luncheon at the Brussels Meeting of the Ad Hoc Council. His reflections on Europe are always timely and inspiring.

Wise words.

“You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.” — Friedrich Nietzsche

Knowledge is having the right answers. Intelligence is asking the right questions. Wisdom is knowing when to ask the right questions.

You can always recognize truth by its beauty and simplicity.

Education is not about knowing everything, it’s about understanding that there is always more to learn and discover.

If you have any talent, any occupation that delights you, do it, and do it to the hilt. Don't ask why or what difficulties you may get into.

You cannot get educated by this self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams, but nobody knows anything. You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting.

@VoniatisC Περαστικά Χριστίνα μου 💐😘

Ήταν μια πολύ πολύ δύσκολη μέρα η σημερινή. Αλλά όταν έχεις άτομα που συμπάσχουν και σε αγαπούν και ανησυχούν για σένα, τότε μόνο να χαμογελώ μπορώ… γιατί είμαι ευγνώμων για τους αγγέλους επί της γης που ήρθαν στη ζωή μου. Κάποια άτομα έχουν λογαριασμό εδώ στο X και άλλα όχι. Σημασία έχει όμως ότι είναι δίπλα μου. Σας ευχαριστώ 😊 #ξέρετε_ποιοι_είστε 💞

@philotimo_eu Indeed we did!!
