Mad About Humans: World Maker's Almanac Quotes

“Liberationville (The Sonnet) When the blood is boiling and conscience is screaming, Stop not wishing for a messiah to appear. When the heart is beating and the mind is restless, Sit not praying for the miseries to disappear. When the veins are burning and nerves are revolting, Stay not cooped up in a cocoon of petty pleasures. When the lungs are choking and cells are aching, Stay not inanimate out of insecurities and fears. When the spine is bending and the head is drooping, Stay not silent submitting to tribal identity. When the knees are trembling and the throat is thirsty, Stand not frail as servant of conformity. When the eyes are teary and lips are dreary, never consider sitting still. Obliterate loyalty to atrocities of the norm waking up to liberationville.”

“Give Me Blood and Sweat (The Sonnet) Give me your pleasures, I'll give you awakening. Give me your pride, I'll give you inclusion. Give me your self-obsession, I'll give you acceptance. Give me your arrogance, I'll give you liberation. Give me your tradition, I'll give you revolution. Give me your blindness, I'll give you clarity. Give me your disparities, I'll give you humaneness. Give me your rigidity, I'll give you serenity. Give me your religion, I'll give you harmony. Give me your language, I'll give you amity. Give me your identity, I'll give you unity. Give me your nationality, I'll give you humanity. Give me your sleep and comfort, I'll give you assimilation. Give me your blood and sweat, I'll give you ascension.”

“Live Torch (The Sonnet) Be a live torch amidst the darkest night. If not you, who else will light up the society! Be a living weapon to defend the meek in fright. If not you, who else will guard humanity! Be a breathing sword to scare away inhumanities. If not you, who else will draw the righteous line! Be a valiant shield to stand against atrocities. If not you, who else will call that duty mine! Be a daring drum announcing the beats of acceptance. If not you, who else will be the emblem of inclusion! Be a fierce arrow to penetrate the clouds of conformity. If not you, who else will free people from segregation! Be the liberating nuke that demolishes all dogmatic shell. If not you, who else will burn delivering the humanizing kernel!”
