Moody's Latest Downgrade (BBC News, 3 March)
Haris Alexiou (Kathimerini, 28 February):
"Northerners don’t understand our mentality. I was on Paros with a group of foreign friends who seemed surprised: ‘Are Greeks still going on vacation?’ they asked. Greeks are proud people. They no longer go away on vacation for 20 days, but on the four days they will be away they will be dignified. They will not get by on just a salad and a sandwich per day. It’s hard for foreigners to grasp the idea of offering to pay for someone’s meal, and they will never race you to pay the bill first. If an uninvited guest came round, our parents would have shared their meal with them."
