Honor He Wrote: 100 Sonnets For Humans Not Vegetables Quotes

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 19 From error to error, we'll correct our errors. From failure to failure, we shall rise high. From despair to despair, our fears disappear. From scar to scar, our heart learns to fly. From one jinx to another, we become destiny. From darkness to darkness, we become light. One wound to another, we become the cure. From one loss to another, we understand life. Dust bite after dust bite, all dust become ointment. One lost road after another, we draw a new map. Teardrops upon teardrops, all tears turn elixir. One screw-up after another, we learn to grow up. One heartbreak to another, we become the healer. Bearing crisis upon crisis, we shall rise as creator.”

“The God Sonnet I gave you the tablets at Sinai, I drove your chariot at Kurukshetra. I gave you the ayats word by word, I woke up Siddhartha 'n the carpenter. No matter the time, age 'n technology, I always rise to treat the common cold. Amidst a world full of sore coldness, I only need ten vessels absurdly bold. I have nothing to do with perfection, Far from it, I've got plenty to improve. With each new vessel my sight broadens, With each identity my existence renewed. Keeper am I of this terrestrial neighborhood. I am your innermost fire of god and good.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 9 The case of life is a case of kindness, The case of reform is a case of unself. The case of growth is a case of correction, The case of joy is a case beyond the self. To unself the soul is to unfold happiness, To disavow destiny is to write destiny. To bring down the walls is to build bridges, To refute inhumanity is to practice humanity. Upon our indifference jungle sustains, Upon our accountability worlds unfold. Requirement of civilization is plain 'n simple, Appearance is nothing if hands don't unfold. You know why we have two hands 'n one mouth, So that we may stop arguing ‘n help each other out.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 62 Belief sustains a person, But behavior sustains a society. Belief has nothing to do with truth, It is just a matter of mental necessity. Often our belief defies all reason, That's absolutely okay to a great extent. What's not okay is to impose it on others, To sentence others to our imprisonment. I believe, that my teacher watches over me, Even though he walks the earth no more. This belief has nothing to do with your life, But it helps me walk past my crippling woe. All beliefs are good beliefs with or without reason, If they help you in life to become a better person.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 79 When we end up together, That's not an end, but the beginning. It's division that ends all journey, End division, ‘n life will have true beginning. Century after century went on with division, Yet unity is forever, division is nonexistence. To breathe, eat, mate and sleep, ain't existence, To help, heal, lift and light, that's existence. We've got intellect, we've got sentiment, All are useless if they don't help erase division. Human is another name for undivision, Not another synonym for discrimination. To have 'n to hold, mustn't be a vow between just two. Make it one among all, and soon unity will be true.”

“Sonnet of Silence I am the loudest when I am silent, My lips are shut yet I speak treasures. Speech without heart is nothing but noise, Listen to my silence, you'll hear the universe. Words spoken with mere lips reach nowhere, For it's the heart that makes words alive. Tell people who you are without saying a word, Speak from your very core, they'll listen alright. I repeat, silent people have the loudest hearts, For when you speak less you get to listen more. The more you listen the more you are heard, The more you hear the more you get to grow. Set the words on fire, let them all turn to ashes. Tell people who you are without all the speeches.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 77 Be a muse to the world, not a mole. Be a flute to the world, not a fluke. Be a whistle to the world, not a hoax. Be a warm coat to the world, not a coup. Be O2 to the world, not CO. Be water to the world, not booze. Be a castle to the world, not another chaos. Be ointment to the world, not another wound. If you can't be a castle, be an apartment, If you can't be an apartment, be a hut. It's not about the size of your sacrifice, It's about the intent, you impetuous lovenut! Be a lamp, ladder or lego, what, it doesn't matter. Just be something that makes the world better.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 78 Two is better than one, Seven billion is better than two. It's okay to collide on occasion so long as, We're by each other when we are in doo-doo. Every time we hold hands, magic happens, This ain't the magic of our ignorant ancestors. I am talkin' about the mortal magic of diversity, The power that comes to life when we're together. Remember this simple principle my friend, Those who fall together, fly together. Arms are just arms when separated, But shield when held together. We are a blessing when we stand together. When divided, we are our worst nightmare.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 11 You wanna get laid? Get laid, but with consent. You wanna jump off a cliff? Just jump, with an active brain. You wanna try booze? Try it, but with moderation. You wanna smoke weed? Do it, but with self-regulation. Try out everything you wanna try, Figure out right 'n wrong for yourself. It is your life, test it to its limits, but, Be sure not to harm others in the process. Get it all over with, for plenty work remains. Live to build a world, not to pamper shallow tenets.”

“Honor He Wrote (The Sonnet) I am not a writer, writers have limits, I have none, I only have responsibility, The responsibility to unite the world, The responsibility to humanize humanity. We are setting out on this journey, With the awareness of being responsible, For responsibility makes one honorable, Honor makes one responsible. Fervor of honor is beginning to fade, From the fabric of society and self. It is definitely no sign of progress, In fact it is a sign of utter decadence. Honor is, in truth, another name for character. With the demise of honor all good will disappear.”

“World is My Valentine (The Sonnet) My first and foremost love is society, Romance 'n things are second priority. My love seeks not to be loved in return, In fact, my love thrives in cold nonreciprocity. Mine is not to reason why, mine is to love and die, There's no greater love than that of a one-sided lover. The world is to me what Julia was to Saint Valentine, And what the impoverished were to Nicholas Santa. A world anemic in love needs a day to celebrate love, I am a lover eternal, for me every day is valentine's day. The world is my valentine, as such it is under my care, It's my duty to protect it from Claudius' mischievous play. I shall stop breathing before I break this pledge of mine. There's no greater power than the pledge of a lover divine.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 12 After all this time, the sun doesn't say to us, Listen you guys, you owe all your light to me. The trees don’t grab our throat with its vines, And yell, all your air and food are my charity. A candle does not burn to be appraised, But because to burn is the purpose of a candle. A candle not burning is no candle at all, Be a burning candle and live life purpose-driven. Life is a vessel of infinite majesty and potential, Let us not let it rot at the shore playing safe. Come hail or high water, let us be shredded, Let us be annihilated in service and in help. Let us be human, let us be alive across all narrowness. Let us be the shinning beacon of supreme unselfishness.”
