Keep in mind what Mentors say:
- “I like the one who speaks well, who is silent where necessary and speaks correctly when necessary. Aeschylus, ancient Greek tragedian.
- “To laconize is to philosophize”. Chilon Lacedaemon, one of the seven wise men.
- “The more you say, the less people will remember.” François Fenelon, French priest, theologian and writer.
- “The art of listening has the same value as the art of speaking. He who speaks sows sows, he who listens reaps the harvest”. Pierre-Claude-Victor Boiste, French lexicographer.
- “Less is more”. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, German architect.
- “In art, economy is always beauty”. Henry James, American author.
- “I once heard that a successful speech should be like a well-tailored skirt – so short that it catches the eye, so long that it covers the content, so ideally made that it highlights the content, captures the attention, excites the imagination, stays memorable, you want to own it! In all seriousness, if the content is interesting and the presentation is engaging, then 7 minutes makes all the difference for an ideally successful speech – presentation.” Sissy Sigioultzi-Rouka, President of the Hellenic Cypriot Cultural Association
Art Fair play. With education and culture, you participate fairly, clearly and firmly, away from temptations and egoism, with respect for the word and work of others, with respect and trust in the competition process, the jury and the participating public. The timer teaches us moderation, clarity, frugality, meritocracy, the jury bell teaches us trust, and the program rules teach us our rights, obligations and limits in society.
