Brit Actually: Nursery Rhymes of Reparations Quotes

“What is Truth (The Sonnet) There is not one but two truths, truth of facts and truth of good. Truth of facts is worth the honor, when it serves the truth of good. Truth of facts thrives on logic, an effective antidote to prejudice. Where it sucks the sweetness of life, truth of facts is carrier of malice. Truth of facts is carrier of logic, Truth of good is carrier of life. Often times they cohabit the mind, sometimes facts only undermine life. Pride of truth is the good it does, without which all facts are futile. Truth of good is truth absolute, absence of heart makes logic vile.”

“Manavad Gita, Sonnet (Song of Human) Cosmos is my koran, Brahmand is my bible. No writ is whole enough, to contain mind indivisible. All say their scripture is god-given*, it takes holiness to find humans holy. To surpass the superstition of *bhagavad, is the beginning of civilized sanctity. My holiness is in my hands, no fantasy is my authority. I'm not against faith of fiction, but it's time for human based divinity. If you need myths to sustain your holiness, it's a lot of things, but it ain't holy. Holiness of humans cares for the humans, this is my song offering to humanity.”
