Father Atanasie Hotovi, monk, Letea, Danube Delta
Here the people are less civilized, they don’t really know how to read, they don’t really have anything to do with culture. Living a lot in nature, you end up isolating yourself a lot, and I feel, I see that I have contact with them all day long, they have isolated themselves a lot, they no longer communicate with each other, they no longer help each other. There is no longer a connection between them, each for himself. I can’t bring them together with others, I can’t, I can’t. They have isolated themselves too much, probably because of their lifestyle. It has now become every man for himself. It’s as if it were an area where we are not talking about a village or a commune, but a zone of self.
