Himalayan Sonneteer: 100 Sonnets of Unsubmission Quotes

“Thus Peace Begins (The Sonnet) Peace begins with society, Society begins with individuality. Individuality begins with liberty, Liberty begins with accountability. Accountability comes from unity, Unity comes through community. Community comes through diversity, Diversity comes through inclusivity. Inclusivity comes through nonrigidity, Nonrigidity comes through curiosity. Curiosity comes through expansivity, Expansivity comes through evolvability. Evolvability comes through taming animality. Animality is tamed when we prioritize humanity.”

“Himalayan Sonneteer Sonnet 56 Seni seviyorum be insan! It's okay if you don't get a word I say. You won't remember the words anyway, It's the sentiment that makes the way. There is a bridge from my heart to yours, But you won't fathom it with all the words. Oneness is a bridge revealed in silence, Can you hear the pitter-patter of teardrops! If you can't hear the teardrops of a warzone, All your philosophies are basically useless. If we can't light up the forgotten corners, What's the point in discovering photoelectric effect! What's the point of all these fancy words and doohickeys, If human emotion sinks to the bottom of our priorities!”

“Himalayan Sonneteer Sonnet 3 What is the role of an electrical fuse? Amateurs will say, conducting electricity. But the actual task of a fuse is, To blow itself when the load is too heavy. Thus the fuse protects the appliance, Against any electrical irregularity. Likewise, we gotta blow our fuse, Whenever inhumanity hangs heavy. If we stay silent in indifference, What's the point of all this electricity! Nerves that carry not vigor but ice water, Ain't no human nerves but sewers of society. Human nerves are the life-circuit of society. If they carry ice water, it is a catastrophe.”
