Little Planet on The Prairie: Dunya Benim, Sorumluluk Benim Quotes

“Dream Before Genes (The Sonnet) As a teenager I only had one dream - immortality, not fame, not wealth, but immortality. I wanted to live on long after my body had perished, and with sheer conviction I made it a reality. Tomorrow if I fall asleep, I shall sleep contented, for my mission will live on galvanizing brave veins. My only regret is, I never got to raise a family, it's the bittersweet price a reformer has to pay. Abi the person had to be sacrificed, for Naskar the dream to become a reality. Anyone who says, they have no regrets, never dared to live up to their full capacity. I offered up my youth to lift up the world, even got dumped, while lost in world building. My genes might die with me, not my dream - One day, not long now, whole world will be kin.”

“The Caretaker, Sonnet What was good enough for the fiction fearing men of the past, is no yardstick for the civilized us. Just like what we carve out for ourselves, may not be sufficient for future generations. Every generation must carve their own destiny, taking lessons from the past, not edicts. No generation is authority of the other, each generation must write their own rights, lingo and ethics. Every generation needs caretakers, and the caretaker of your generation is you. There is no such thing as a golden age, age gets golden or gutted by the likes of you. What was good enough for the apes, is no yardstick for the sapiens. My world, my responsibility - voices the Caretaker thundersaint!”
