The German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the first President of the USA, George Washington, the English Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill, the French writer and philosopher Voltaire, the Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the Italian adventurer and author Giacomo Casanova, the English actor Peter Sellers, the Greek-American actor and film director Aristotelis (‘Telly’) Savalas, the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin, the Scottish biologist and pharmacologist Sir Alexander Fleming, the Swiss founder of the Red Cross Henry Dunant, the English writer Alexander Pope, the US actor John Wayne, the Hungarian composer Franz Liszt, the English poet and novelist Rudyard Kipling, the German poet, writer and philosopher Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, the Austrian composer Franz J. Haydn, and many other figures of international renown; one thing links them all: they were Freemasons. They were members of this brotherhood, and supporters of a philosophical system that seeks to answer the question posed by all thinking men: Who am I? Why am I here? What is the purpose of life?
        Freemasonry offers a way forward to all people who are genuinely seeking to find the meaning and purpose of life. It is an organization, a brotherhood, dedicated to philosophical enquiry and philanthropy. This anthology contains selected words of wisdom from internationally renowned Freemasons –poets, philosophers, writers, artists, politicians, scientists, painters, inventors, soldiers, journalists, industrialists, jurists, and entrepreneurs– from the founding of Freemasonry to the present day.

A timeless and symbolic sample of the wisdom and thought of the Freemasons.

Ο Γερμανός συγγραφέας Γιόχαν Βόλφγκανγκ φον Γκέτε, ο πρώτος πρόεδρος των ΗΠΑ Τζορτζ Ουάσινγκτον, ο Βρετανός πολιτικός Σερ Ουίνστον Τσόρτσιλ, ο Γάλλος συγγραφέας και φιλόσοφος Βολτέρος, ο Αυστριακός συνθέτης Βόλφγκανγκ Αμαντέους Μότσαρτ, ο Ιταλός τυχοδιώκτης και συγγραφέας Τζάκομο Καζανόβα, ο Βρετανός ηθοποιός Πίτερ Σέλερς, ο Ελληνοαμερικανός ηθοποιός και σκηνοθέτης Τέλης Σαβάλας, ο Ρώσος ποιητής Αλεξάντερ Πούσκιν, ο Σκοτσέζος μικροβιολόγος σερ Αλεξάντρ Φλέμινγκ, ο Ελβετός ανθρωπιστής και ιδρυτής του Ερυθρού Σταυρού Ανρί Ντινάν, ο Βρετανός ποιητής Αλεξάντερ Πόουπ, ο Αμερικανός ηθοποιός Τζον Γουέιν, ο Ούγγρος συνθέτης Φραντς Λιστ, ο Άγγλος λογοτέχνης Ράντγιαρντ Κίπλινγκ και πολλές άλλες προσωπικότητες διεθνούς φήμης είχαν ένα κοινό χαρακτηριστικό: ήταν Ελευθεροτέκτονες. Υπήρξαν μέλη της αδελφότητας αυτής και οπαδοί ενός φιλοσοφικού συστήματος που αναζητά απαντήσεις στα αιώνια ερωτήματα που απασχολούν τον κάθε σκεπτόμενο άνθρωπο σχετικά με τη θέση του στον κόσμο και το νόημα της ζωής. Η ανθολογία αυτή περιλαμβάνει επιλεγμένα αποφθέγματα από επιφανείς Ελευθεροτέκτονες –ποιητές, φιλοσόφους, συγγραφείς, καλλιτέχνες, πολιτικούς, δικαστές, επιστήμονες, επιχειρηματίες κλπ–, από τη γέννηση του Τεκτονισμού μέχρι σήμερα. Ένα διαχρονικό, συμβολικό δείγμα της σκέψης και της σοφίας των Τεκτόνων.


Dr. Panos Koronakis-Rohlf was born in Athens in 1961. He studied chemical engineering and continued for postgraduate studies at German-speaking Schools of Engineering in Austria, Switzerland and Germany. He holds a PhD in Biotechnology, and today he lives and works in Greece and Germany as the Chief Executive of a German multinational company manufacturing medical products. Apart from spending time with his family, he dedicates his free time to writing and photography. He is also engaged in charitable work, mainly through the Richard and Anne Rohlf Foundation, of which he is the President. He is the co-author of Ancient Greece and the Modern Manager (Kalendis, 2009), Wisdom Made in Delphi: The Commandments of the Seven Sages(Topos Books 2011) and Greek Wisdom: The Land and the People (Topos Books 2012).
