Romania. For most of the world, the name usually conjures up images of Dracula, Olympic gymnastics legend Nadia Comaneci—and not much else. Yet this country with a rich history stretching back thousands of years contains countless wonders and hidden gems, producing many people who’ve made a major impact on our world. Their Wisdom has remained hidden behind the barrier of a language spoken by less than 25 million people worldwide. All selections within this book are from people born in Romania, including: · Hollywood legends Edward G. Robinson, Bela Lugosi (the original Dracula), and Johnny Weissmuller (the original Tarzan) · Elie Weisel, Nobel Prize-winning author · Olympic gold medal gymnast Nadia Comaneci · Renowned sculptor Constantin Brancusi · The lesser-known outside Romania, such as poet Mihai Eminescu (whose fame it’s said would have rivaled Shakespeare, had Eminescu written in English). This Book will give you a meaningful glimpse into the heart and soul of Romania and its people—both the world-famous and everyday citizens.

We created The Little Book of Romanian Wisdom to be both an introduction and an invitation to go deeper into the wisdom and soul of a country, and in the process, awaken the wisdom of the heritage within each of us.We hope you enjoy this collection of Romanian quotes and pearls of wisdom as much as we enjoyed assembling it.Diana Doroftei and Matthew Cross
Considered by many the most beautiful country in Eastern Europe, Romania still claims regions that seem bastions of a medieval past long since lost elsewhere. Fofor's Guide to Eastern and Central Europe
