Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“When I close my eyes, I can see the world of my dream clear as day - a world where there is no man, there is no woman, there is no queer, there is only love - a world where there is no white, there is no color, there is only love - a world where there is no believer, there is no nonbeliever, there is only love - a world where there is no leader, there is no follower, there is only love. This is the civilization that we must build - a civilization that has conquered its animal nature rather being conquered by it - a civilization that is human at heart, human at thought, and human in action.”

“The problem of systemic racism is much bigger than mere reparations can solve. I am not opposing reparations mark you, but the only thing that can actually make any difference is an everyday, ordinary and yet incorruptible regard for human life in every single person regardless of their color.”

“Woke and cancel culture are both signs of a judgmental culture, not a mentally mature one. A world where you cannot even speak to another person without worrying about what they are going to think of you, has not advanced much from the days when the white people used to own slaves. Let me tell you this, if you are kind, if you are compassionate, if you hold no discrimination towards people whatsoever, then you have no reason to worry about whether you are woke enough.”

“If you need a god, keep it - everybody has imaginary friends, my imaginary friend is my late teacher, and I find it therapeutic to talk to him whenever I hit rock bottom. It's just something we humans need to survive, quite like water and food! The last thing this world needs is more war to prove whose imaginary friend is better than the rest.”

“I am not left or right, I am a human. And if someone sounds more aligned with my ideas, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are left, it just means they have a more practical, community-centric and self-correcting grasp of humanity than those who are self-absorbed, self-righteous and self-serving.”
