There are more and more artists around the world expressing their support and solidarity in the difficult economic times that Greece is going through. Read some of the most typical ones.
Angelina Jolie: On the occasion of the film he directed about the war in Yugoslavia, the American actress talked about the economic collapse that hits the countries before the war."I'm not saying it will happen in this case, but it is a very serious and sensitive issue and the world should pay attention to any country that goes through so much and show the greatest possible support".

Andie MacDowell:"I admire the Greek people for what they are going through. You are heroes".

Robin Williams:"Humanity must bow to Greek history. Your country's economy may not be doing well, but that doesn't mean you're powerless. Financial facts are constantly changing for everyone. What doesn't change is the legacy, your identity. The Parthenon does not leave Athens. It's still there to remind us that progress and prosperity can return.".

Gwyneth Paltrow:"This place gave values and defined ideals. Against a country that offered important things to all of humanity, we must be more generous".

Nikos Aliagas: "Hitting the Greeks is like hitting Europe. Don't humiliate the Greeks. The reality of the country is far from what is played out in Brussels. Purchasing power has declined significantly, the middle class is taxed and loaned us money at unfair and cynical interest rates. It's the middle class that suffers.".

Steven Spielberg:"I have high hopes for Greece, with its wonderful and deep history, either they will save her or she will. It's a persistent country with wonderful people and I'm really proud to have been able to visit it so many times.".
