Making Britain Civilized: How to Gain Readmission to The Human Race Quotes

“Let them be bonkers for money if they want, let them be bonkers for facts if they want, let them be bonkers for dogmas and traditions if they want. As for you, be bonkers for the uplift of those around you, and for that if you have to compromise your intellect at times, then be it - but never - I repeat, never, ever compromise your humanity for anything in the world.”

“Look up, look at the stars. You know, some of those shining stars don't exist any more, they exploded long ago, yet their light keeps shining. Be a star my friend, and burn with all your might, so that your light lives on, even after you die.”

“You think booze makes you drunk? Fall head over heels in love with humankind, then you'll know what true drunkenness is all about. And in that drunkenness you'll know sanity - in that drunkenness you'll know true sapience.”

“Rightful King (The Sonnet) The rightful king is one who dissolves the kingdom. The rightful politician is one who dissolves the party. The rightful ruler is one who wants only to serve. The rightful citizen is always steadfast in accountability. Long live the Queen and Heil Hitler are one and the same, For both are sign of absolute allegiance without question. Allegiance to king and country keeps a land uncivilized, Allegiance to ideology and tradition destroys all ascension. Let there be no king and queen, let there be no kingdom, Let there be no party and let there be no authoritarianism. The force that builds a world doesn't come from bloodline, For character is beyond the grasp of our puny sectarianism. In a civilized society we are all king, we are all policymaker. The world advances when we advance as its fervent keeper.”

“To hell with the crown jewels, to hell with Fort Knox! You have something a billion times more valuable than all the treasures in the world. It is your human life. Give it up - give it up without a second's thought - give it up for those who have their back against the wall – those who are exploited, abused and alienated every single moment of their life – those who are pushed, and pushed, and pushed, by the materialistic world until they have nowhere to go. Give it up all for them. Show the world what a real king, a real queen looks like. Sacrifice makes one king or queen, not bloodline.”
