Giants in Jeans: 100 Sonnets of United Earth Quotes

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 54 It is human nature to shed tears in agony, But taking pain to wipe another's tear is humanity. It's human nature to be sad at the loss of something, But giving up all to lift another is humanity. It is human nature to reply harm with more harm, But to stand unbending without violence is humanity. It is human nature to reply argument with argument, But knowing when to lose an argument is humanity. It is human nature to win by dragging others down, But defying competition to live a purpose is humanity. It is human nature to blame disparity on politicians, But to step up ensuring equity in one's area is humanity. Just because it’s human nature, doesn't make it civilized. We shall be civilized when we are no longer hypnotized.”

“Sonnet of Enlightenment World is born when individual is born. Individual is born when collectivity is realized. Collectivity is realized when selfishness is erased. Selfishness is erased when love is universalized. Love is universalized when separation is destroyed. Separation is destroyed when superstition is crushed. Superstition is crushed when reason is nourished. Reason is nourished when correction is desired. Correction is desired when ignorance is recognized. Ignorance is recognized when arrogance is abolished. Arrogance is abolished when humility is fostered. Humility is fostered when simplicity is habit. Simplicity is habit when awareness awakens. Awareness awakens when expansion awakens.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 64 Let us be oblivious to security and comfort, In our pursuit and practice of humanity. Let us be oblivious to personal happiness, In our endeavors into the impossibility. Let us throw all fear and anxiety overboard, For the dreams that’ll determine our destiny. Let us trample every foul desire for luxury, And treat the hard problem of inhumanity. Let us pay no heed to gain and pain, In our course of constructing a whole society. Let us not sit around praying for a messiah, And stand up ourselves to carry out that duty. Let others be oblivious to humanity if they want. Even if it's doomsday, sapling of service we'll plant.”
