View To The Aegean Sea, Face and Soul of the Ancestral Sea
"For forty centuries the Aegean Sea has flown through our veins. Issuing from the ancient world and traversing history, it has shone forth to the valleys and the mountain tops of the world, preparing the moral and spiritual path of modern man. This is the birthplace of epic and lyric poetry, of humanism, of the yearning for adventure and the eternal search for truth."
(Menelaos Mountes)
