Savour Life

savouring a cup of tea at Okochi-Sanso, Arashiyama (Kyoto)

What we need more and more is to savour more fully any moment of life. And I think the theatre can do this. My only aim in the theatre is that people, after the experience of one or two hours together, in some way leave more confident with life than when they came in.

... σ' όσους ήρθαν, πέρασαν ... / © I.A. Daglis

... ό,τι είστε, μην ξεχνάτε, δεν είστε από τα χέρια σας μονάχα, όχι. 
Χρωστάμε σ' όσους ήρθαν, πέρασαν, θα 'ρθούν, θα περάσουν. 
Κριτές, θα μας δικάσουν, οι αγέννητοι, οι νεκροί ...

Κωστής Παλαμάς [Η λειτουργία δεν τέλειωσε, 1925]

What men live by

Olia Lazaridou, "What men live by", in Poreia Theatre, Athens

I have now understood that though it seems to men that they live by care for themselves, in truth it is love alone by which they live. He who has love, is in God, and God is in him, for God is love.

Leo Tolstoy [What men live by, 1881]
