Get the Skibidi Niko mug.an amazing author who wrote the books; zorba the greek(1953), saint francis(1962), freedom or death(1956), the last temptation of Christ(1960), Christ recrucified, report to greco(1965), the greek passion(1954), toda raba(1964), and the rock garden(1963).
Arguably the most important and most translated Greek writer and philosopher of the 20th century. Yet he did not become well known globally until the 1964 release of the Michael Cacoyannis film Zorba the Greek, based on Kazantzakis' novel whose English translation has the same title.
He was born in Crete, In 1902, Kazantzakis began the study of law at the University of Athens, then went to Paris in 1907 to study philosophy, where he studied under Henri Bergson.
Upon his return to Greece, he began translating works of philosophy. In 1914, he met Angelos Sikelianos. Together they travelled for two years in places where Greek Christian culture flourished, largely influenced by the enthusiastic nationalism of Sikelianos.
Late in 1957, even though suffering from leukemia, he set out on one last trip to China and Japan. Falling ill on his return flight, he was transferred to Freiburg, Germany, where he died. He is buried on the wall surrounding the city of Heraklion, because the Orthodox Church ruled out his being buried in a cemetery. His epitaph reads "I hope for nothing. I fear nothing. I am free." (Δεν ελπίζω τίποτα. Δε φοβούμαι τίποτα. Είμαι λεύτερος.)
Since his youth, Kazantzakis was spiritually restless. Tortured by metaphysical and existential concerns, he sought relief in knowledge, in travelling, in contact with a diverse set of people, in every kind of experience. The influence of Friedrich Nietzsche on his work is evident, especially in his atheism and sympathy for the superman (Übermensch) concept. However, religious concerns also haunted him. To attain a union with God, Kazantzakis entered a monastery for a brief stay of six months.
Many Greek religious conservatives condemned Kazantzakis' work.His interesting reply was: "You gave me a curse, Holy fathers, I give you a blessing: may your conscience be as clear as mine and may you be as moral and religious as I" before the Greek Orthodox church excommunicated him in 1955. (Greek: "Μου δώσατε μια κατάρα, Άγιοι πατέρες, σας δίνω κι εγώ μια ευχή: Σας εύχομαι να ‘ναι η συνείδηση σας τόσο καθαρή, όσο είναι η δική μου και να ‘στε τόσο ηθικοί και θρήσκοι όσο είμαι εγώ").

Get the Nikos Mpokoros mug.Nikos is the character on TV that appears to be the underdog but once you get to know him is breathtaking. Nikos has the most honest eyes that melt like caramel. His smile is straight out of a cheesy Taylor Swift song. He is creative, and shy, but deep down a really great person. Even if he himself doesn't recognize it. He is naturally hilarious, but has so much more natural charm than he lets on. He really cares- if you ever meet Nikos remember he is worth knowing/loving.

Get the Nikos mug.Is definitely not a lax bro. If you are named Nikos and are a lax bro, out the jam brotha', out the jam. Wears socks that are too big for his slender but muscular legs. It naturally tan, but the lighting is never on his side when it comes to pictures. Appreciates ALF and Seinfeld, as well as catching up on his soccer games on YouTube (eyeroll). Is a little shy, but in the most charming of ways. Is usually pretty late, (disclaimer) and blushes often but he will not admit it. Nikos' tend to have the best eyes. Likes to walk into bushes, and when they smile they look at the ground. Nikos' can swim (probably) and are "Very fast- kind of like horses." Nikos' are originals and one might even say victors in the human world. If you meet a Nikos don't be shy, go up to him and say the strangest thing possible. In his natural habitat, he is messy but very comfortable. Nikos is wickedly skilled at piano, and a great sibling to boot. Nikos does not care for biology, but is naturally gifted in the art department. Nikos' tend to have small feet and hands but don't worry THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING. Probably. Hopefully. Who knows all Nikos' are different in that department. They aren't some cult (.....) Nikos' enjoy romantic walks in the dumps, and revolving in bed during their free hours. Hey- it's exercise. Bottom line, you should get to know the Nikos' of the world- they're pretty great. Oh and they can write- so look out.
