Azad Earth Army: When The World Cries Blood Quotes

“Sonnet 2000 (My Real Legacy) My real legacy is not the books or the sonnets, but the unbending humanitarians I've set on fire. The literature is just a vessel for the spirit, spirit of a world united, in reason and in care. Ceaseless slurs are daily occurrence, Mindless hate indeed plenty I face. Yet I've kept all vengeance in check, Never have I ever been lost in bitterness. I am the line that I've drawn for myself, Can't tell you how to behave, how not. I stand steady as the human impossible, Rest is up to you, what to take, what not. I don't come from wealth, nor could I amass any, I set out with zero dollars, and no publicity. World integration is my life's first madness - this madness I leave for you, now it's your duty.”

“Yesterday's world was obsessed with swords, today's world is obsessed with guns, tomorrow's world will be obsessed with AI, and it always ends up with death and destruction. Day after tomorrow it'll be business as usual, savage world will be back obsessing with fire, then again with swords, then guns, and so on, till the sky pours ashes and seas boil over.”

“If Only (Sonnet 1983) If I were a fascist, I'd press that button, and wipe the colonizers off the planet for good. If I were a fascist, I'd press that button, and let millions of innocents burn for a greater global good. If I were a fascist, I'd press that button, sanctified of filth we would start anew. If only I were a fascist like you - if only!”

“Give me a pen, I'll give you peace (Sonnet) One pen can defeat a thousand guns, that's why books get banned, not guns. There's nothing more dangerous than books that radicalize you against war. When you take away fear from the citizens, you take away their initiative for war. And when citizens no longer conform to war, that's the biggest threat to political power. You cannot ask citizens to pay for the bombs, if they believe more in peace than paranoia. Stupid taxpayers are the biggest sponsors of war, patriotism is genocide, military is massacre. I have zero tolerance for any civilian, politician or scholar who takes pride in the military - go back to the jungle, because that's where you belong, with the rest of your animal society.”
