Some quotes by famous Gnossians
"Democracy is that great system that allows me to relinquish my duties, not by force of enemies, not by call of arms and death of men, not even by the end of my own frail flesh, but by the will our Creator has endowned us with, to freely elect our new leader."-- George Lyopolis, first president of Gnoss (1778-1786)
"Every Sunday, I thank the Lord for the democracy in our country. That gratitude lasts until Monday, when I read the bills on my desk"
-- Stannos Agathanthe, president (1902 - 1910)
"I am always surprised when my opponents say they want to take the country forward. Hasn't it occurred to them that the country is going forward anyway? As for the ones who want to take the country backward: I look forward to hearing my great-grandfather's opinion on your efforts to resuscitate him."
-- Helen Agathanthe, president (1974 - 1978)
- and yes, she was the great-granddaughter of Stannos.
"Prejudice is condensed laziness"
-- Yannis Aeneas Bolopoulou, senator (1944 - 1968)
