Vande Vasudhaivam: 100 Sonnets for Our Planetary Pueblo Quotes

“There are three kinds of people in the world - Those who make the world, those who mock the makers, and those who sleep through all the making and mocking. Or better yet, there are humans then there are animals - Humans who make the world, humans who help the makers, and animals are those who keep mocking and sleeping.”

“Political Wildlife (The Sonnet) Easiest way to study animal behavior without going on safari, is to sit in front of a political debate. Political salesmen are ideal specimen of wildlife in their natural habitat. Listen to all the howling and screaming, Listen to all the brainless twatter. You shall learn a lot about the brutal wild, By watching the cannibals devour each other. In the world of political haftwits, Politics is just "left and right" affair. Where all left and right come to an end, There begins actual human welfare. Partisan world is a loveless world, where popular truth is but a lie. We don't need to lean left or right, it is time, human heart spreads human-wide.”

“We Are Turkiye (The Sonnet) Earthquake may shatter our houses, But it can never shatter our hearts. We shall rise from the rubble once again, We shall build back against nature's curse. But this time let us build back better, By putting our faith in science not politics. We could've averted such cataclysmic terror, Had we heeded the warnings of scientists. A scientist works to preserve life, Politician plays publicity with death. Given the choice between the two, Listen to the scientist without wait. Why do people have to die for us to open our eyes! If we still fail to heed reason, nothing will stop the funeral cries.”
