Mucize Misafir Merhaba: The Peace Testament Quotes

“Soil, The Sonnet My skin is the color of soil, My covers are the color of soil. My heart is the color of soil, My blood is the color of soil. Species that forgets the soil, Is a lifeform abandoned by nature. Species that values sales over soil, Will soon be vaporized or drowned by nature. If we have no place for soil in our heart, How can we expect the soil to replenish us! If we have no place for nature in our heart, How can we expect nature to have a place for us! Only soil is real, all else is delusion. Advancement that has no regard for the soil, is but aneurysm destined for degeneration.”

“Young, Boiling, Selfless (The Sonnet) Sen söyle karadeniz, Ben daha ne yapayım! Gençliğimi feda ettim, Hayatımı feda ettim, Ben daha ne yapayım! In wiping out the anguish of society, I forgot to indulge in the exploits of youth. Once I realized the world on my shoulder, That was the end of self, and the birth of truth. People dream of earning a ton of money, I always dreamed of earning immortality. Anybody can live in flesh and blood, Mark of character is to live in people's memory. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, But a life given for a life fallen makes the whole world alive.”

“You think conducting a bunch of phony peace conferences, completely disconnected from the soil, will solve everything! It won't! You know why? Because make-believe peacemaking is not the same as backbreaking peacemaking. To treat the pangs of this planet each civilian must stand up as peacemaker in their everyday life - each civilian must stand up as reformer - and not just any reformer. To reform this pest-infested planet only reformer won't do, what's needed is rowdy reformer. Rowdy Reformers by the hundreds, Rowdy Reformers by the thousands, that's what this world needs - not some backboneless, book-babbling intellectuals playing pretend peace with pretend intellect.”

“World leader, my eye! Hypocrites, every single one of them! They attend climate conference emitting more carbon than all their citizens combined. They attend peace conference with nuclear codes handy in a briefcase. And you want these two-timing morons to bring peace, health and harmony in the world! Keep dreaming - keep deluding yourself! I for one choose not to delegate the responsibility of my world to a bunch of windbags. The world is mine, its problems are mine.”

“Reformer Needed (The Sonnet) To put the politicians straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the soldiers straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the scientists straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the philosophers straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the entrepreneurs straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the preachers straight, What's needed is a reformer. And how does the reformer remain straight, By looking beyond the beliefs of binary lanes.”

“Representation is Degradation (The Sonnet) Nationalism is but a precursor to fascism, Representation is but a precursor to corruption. Delegation is but a precursor to destitution, Law-abidance is but a precursor to degradation. Representation without accountability is just, As undemocratic as taxation without representation. Trading in one party for another is not change, But merely the re-initiation of prehistoric division. Democracy that shows no sign of nonpartisanism, Is but a petri dish of prejudice most blinding. Such a democracy stuck on representation, Is but a silent dictatorship in the making. Neither law nor party loyalty will elevate the society. All my hope, therefore, lies upon civilian responsibility.”

“When the civilians have grown out of the need for government, and are capable enough to carry the responsibility of their society on their own, there will be no reason for the state to exist. Thus, having served their brief role in the evolution of society, all constructs of state, government and representation will go extinct on their own - just like the tail on our back disappeared when we had no use for them, once we started to walk upright on our feet, breaking free from our traditional habit of hanging from the trees.”

“It is easy to fight power, when you have none, when you feel like the victim. The real battle begins when you start to have a taste of power. It takes an impossible character to stand by their principles till their last breath, rejecting the pressure of oppression, as well as the convenience of power.”

“Fever is not actually a sign of sickness, it is a sign that your body is fighting infection. Likewise, revolution is not a sign of disorder, it is a sign that the society is fighting the infection of inhumanity.”

“Counterfeit revolutionaries give in to the comfort and security of authoritarian life, the moment they come to power themselves. Upon coming to power, the most outspoken activist no longer minds getting acquainted with the nuclear codes of inhumanity, in the name of national security. If asked why, their usual answer is - it's a necessary evil. Thus, an activist is only activist till they come to power. Once in power, most of them turn into the same kind of rotten politicians, that they have been fighting against. That's human behavior 101 in relation to political revolution.”
