Neurosonnets: The Naskar Art of Neuroscience Quotes

“Children of South (World Sonnet) Africa is not a charity case, Colombia is not a charity case, Bolivia is not a charity case, Venezuela is not a charity case, Mexico is not a charity case, Philippines is not a charity case, Thailand is not a charity case, India is not a charity case - the global south is not a charity case, it's rich with both mind and minerals. Human poverty in the global south is manufactured by the northern apes. Awake, Arise, O Children of South, you got more brain, heart and backbone than all old and new colonials combined. Humans of Earth everywhere, all rise 'n roar, the first global goal is to fire the fascists.”

“Post-apocalyptic world will never unfold like in the movies, the post-apocalyptic world already exists, may be not for you, as you're born on the lucky side of privilege - but that world of drought, flood, famine, plague and persecution already exists - ten steps from the door of the privileged.”

“Rx for Fascism (Sonnet) Gaza is not for sale, Greenland is not for sale, Ukraine is not for sale, Canada is not for sale. Planet Earth is not real estate, to pander to your predatory psychopathy. If you are so hard up for cash, we can all chip in to buy you some good ol shock therapy. When someone plays fast and loose with rights and freedom, their place is either in the jungle or in a mental institution, not in office. Fascism, fundamentalism and nationalism, these are the ultimate mental illness.”

“If A Tree Falls (Sonnet) If a tree falls in the forest, but nobody hears it, did it really fall! If children are bombed to death, but it's omitted from the news, did the children really die! If people are massacred by law, but it's not on Netflix, is it really a genocide! If democracy is dismantled piece by piece, but by government decree, is it really illegal! If the world is burnt to cinders, but the privileged castles stay intact, is the world really burning!”
