Giants in Jeans: 100 Sonnets of United Earth Quotes

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 25 Wanna know about people's character? Walk around in shabby clothes. Wanna know who's wise, who's egotistical? Be the dumbest despite your brainforce. Never try to impress people. The more you try, the more they lose interest. Nourish your warmth and kindness instead, Those who care will reach out themselves. But always remember one little thing, You can either have life or calculation. Calculate where it's needed, But not in every situation. Lovers and soldiers are the only ones living, Rest of society is just dehydrating.”

“I Write to Destroy You (The Sonnet) I don’t write to pamper your ego, I don't write to give you comfort. I don't write to teach you self-love, I write to destroy all selfish thought. I don't write to inspire your pride, I don't write to cater to your insecurity. I don't write to entertain shallowness, I only write to abolish self-centricity. I don't write to tickle the instaslaves, I don't write to peddle false perfection. I don't write to lick the privileged boots, I write to make soldiers of self-annihilation. My science and my art were born on the street. That's where I learnt, all suffering is born of greed.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 53 If you call me liberal, You have understood nothing. If you call me conservative, You have understood nothing. If you call me religious, You have understood nothing. If you call me atheist, You have understood nothing. If you call me communist, You have understood nothing. If you call me capitalist, You have understood nothing. You’ll never find me in your fancy ideology, You'll know me by taking pain to wipe another's agony.”

“Sonnet of Charity Charity doesn't end disparity, It only postpones it. Giving doesn't mean only giving, It means lifting the fallen spirit. With one hand help those in need, With another treat their environment. Don't just give money to the destitute, Lift them up so they could help themselves. The greatest charity in the world, Is to help someone become self-reliant, So that they do not need charity, From anyone ever again. Purpose of charity is not to build a world of charity, Purpose of charity is to end the need for charity.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 47 Walk up to death, And smile at your doom. At the sight of your conviction, Stars will begin to bloom. Tread bravely on misery, Defy anything that causes weakness. At the sound of your courageous footsteps, The soil will regain its fragrance. Embolden your chest o mighty victor, Against a hailstorm of ridicule. Even the slight sound of your whisper, Will give chills to the cruel. Care for society, not its opinion of you. Sacrifice all image and status, and stand up anew.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 24 Who is to build the world? Who is to raise the society? Who is to water the plants? Who is to stand up for sanity? Who is to bear agony for community? Who is to go hungry feeding another? Who is to heal the sick while bleeding? Who is to lift the lowly trotting fire? Who is to burn alive to bring light? Who is to walk on thorns to build the bridge? Who is to be deceived yet stay humble? Who is to lay down so others can climb the ridge? It is you, o misfit, o explorer of impossibility, Even if no one joins us, our world is our responsibility!”

“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.”
