Sleepless for Society Quotes

“I wish I could tell you that all the comfort and luxuries in the world are a sign of progress, but they are not - they are a sign of disparities - and these disparities can only go away with our sacrifice - with the sacrifice of the humanitarians - some must give all, all must give some, only then will there be actual civilized, sane, healthy and whole progress - progress that includes all of humanity, not just the privileged few.”

“Not politician - not soldier - not scientist - not philosopher - not a professional of any kind - but a human being - a human being with the fire of accountability - that's what the world is desperately craving for. And that human - that majestic, life-giving, torch-bearing, vigorous human - is not going to fall from the sky - for it is nobody else but you.”

“I hold all of you a traitor till you start doing your part for those in misery. What gives you the right to call yourself a human, till you feel for the humans - what gives you the right to call yourself a human, till you think for the humans - what gives you the right to call yourself a human, till you act for the humans!”

“The individual must choose in which direction they want to take this world of ours - will they take it down the same rotten path of sectarianism like our ancestors did, or will they build a whole new civilized path - a path that facilitates love, not hate - a path that facilitates discussion, not debate - a path that unites, not divides - in short, a path that is human, not savage!”

“Plight of A Humanitarian (The Sonnet) My dear people of earth, I die everyday so that your children can live. My dear people of earth, You've been selfish for long now it's time to give. My dear people of earth, I struggle everyday with your interest on top. My dear people of earth, Enough of this tribalism now it's time to grow up. My dear people of earth, I'm really tired and weary righting all wrong. My dear people of earth, Join me in making a world where we all belong. I promise I don't want much from you. All I ask is that you bid your sectarianism adieu.”

“When Love Awakens (The Sonnet) When love awakens so will the world, For love is the seed of civilization. When love awakens the conflicts will end, For love is the gateway to assimilation. When care crosses family suffering will wither, For selfishness is the cause of miseries. When the soul is clear enough to reflect all, All separation will turn into memories. When breath of one becomes the breath of all, All atrocious walls will collapse into dust. When there’s no more ‘my people your people’, Only then we will be human at last. When the fire of love engulfs our whole being, Time will bear witness to humanity's uprising.”

“The Loco Sonnet Better to be loco for something, Than to be sane for nothing. Better to fight and die for a purpose, Than to sit around and do chanting. Better to love and be exploited, Than to be self-obsessed and crooked. Better to disagree and annoy each other, Than to hide the differences fostering hatred. Better to be a know-nothing idiot, Than to be a know-it-all loudspeaker. Better a character without fancy clothes, Than fancy clothes without character. There’s no future without a united humanity. The whole world is a reflection of me.”

“Sonnet of Social Justice Get ready to fight, Not with hate but accountability. Get ready to fight, Not with vengeance but humanity. Get ready to speak, Not as a cynic but as a sapiens. Get ready to speak, Crossing all egotistical grievance. Get ready to stand, Trampling all petty separation. Get ready to stand, Not in rebellion but in inclusion. When it is too dark around, Look inside for you're the light all round.”
