Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“I'll never force you to be inclusive, if you do harm, I'll restrain you, but I'll never resort to weapons - moreover, I'll never kill for inclusion, I'll simply beg, on my knees, I'll beg till I drop dead - because I have nothing to lose, no reputation, no image, no class.”

“Sanitizing Textbooks (Sonnet 2317) Abolish all white teachers from schools and universities across the world, and replace them with noncaucasians, and the human race will be decolonized and properly civilized within a hundred years - but then again, that would be just as inhuman, ethnic cleansing doesn't cure ethnic cleansing, so we have to go for the only humane alternative, and sanitize every last textbook of all whitewashing. Give up the filthy habit of associating philosophy with the greeks, and poetry with the english - education that doesn't reflect plural humanity, raises only goodlooking jungle rubbish. We need special instruments to see the full spectrum of electromagnetic waves, but to feel the full spectrum of humanity a heart freed from supremacy is sufficient.”

“Time to Cancel 4th of July (Sonnet) If it takes just one election to reverse hundreds of years of social progress, then that society never progressed in the first place. There's no point in celebrating 4th of July, when we're ever regressing to persecution days. On the outside we've made tremendous strides, we have been to the moon and back, yet the glossiest of land reeks of lunacy, when we nationalize prejudice as gallant. America is abomination of everything free and brave, where persecution is law, intolerance is religion. To overcome hate some day, we gotta stand human today; Dream of the King is the Dream of Civilization. We have no cause for celebration, if anything, we gotta re-examine the legitimacy of 4th of July. When boneheaded egomaniacs make a joke of liberty, revolution is our first amendment, mutiny our right.”

“Most Human (Sonnet 2151) Racism is no longer tolerated as normal, Islamophobia is no longer tolerated as normal, Homophobia is no longer tolerated as normal, Chauvinism is no longer tolerated as normal, Colonialism is no longer tolerated as normal - believe you me, I speak as a biologist, this is the most human humanity have ever been in our 200,000 years long history. Accessibility is no longer ignored as unimportant, Autism is no longer frowned upon as abnormal, Integration is no longer cussed as act of stigma, Intolerance no longer celebrated as divine intervention. No wonder bigots have their knickers in a twist, customs of the jungle are getting eradicated like disease. Don't be disheartened by occasional resurgence of fascism, inhumanity flickers fiercely before fading into the abyss.”

“I Too Am A Racist (Sonnet) I too am a racist, except my racism is rooted in evolution, not ignorance and fear - to me, human race is the mightiest animal, which is why, our responsibility is far greater. I too am a bigot, but my bigotry is tolerance, I don't accept anyone as human who's intolerant. I too am a fundamentalist, but my faith is choice, every human is free to choose what's best for them. I too am a traditionalist, except I walk the tradition of acceptance, not a secondhand host to dividing lineage. I too am an extremist, except my extreme is annihilation, my culture don't exist, nor religion, or native language. I am native of the earth, yet I'm immigrant to humankind, for I come from a valley, alien to the states of the world. I am not interested in building bridges, I am the bulldozer, out to demolish convention that makes divisions possible.”

“The way apes understand what's cultured, I'm not that sort of cultured - I'm humanly cultured - which means, I live as cure for tribalism, not coddle; I abolish chains, not worship them, I do not entertain stereotypes - I question and denounce prejudice, both external and internal.”

“The Sonnet is Civilization (Sonnet 2235) I hear, 'just because you're a citizen, doesn't mean you're an american'. I say, just because you're american, doesn't mean you're a civilized human. I hear, 'just because you're a citizen, doesn't mean you're english or australian'. I say, just because you're english or aussie, doesn't mean you're a civilized human. I hear, 'hindi bolnese koi hindustani nahi banjaata', I say, hindustani bannese koi insan nahi banjaata. Ved, Koran ya Bible ratta maarnese koi pak ya pavitra nahi banjaata, there's no greater granth than chetna. Tyranny never comes dressed as tyranny, tyranny always comes dressed as tradition. İyilik evren benim, tüm kâinat benim mahalle, dogma de la etnicidad arruina la civilización.”

“The Man With No Roots (Sonnet) The day children are raised without religion and nationality, that's the beginning of peacemaking, and the empirical end to warmongery. Either raise your children with no religion or multiple religions, either raise your children with no culture or multiple cultures. I grew up celebrating Diwali, eating fruitcake on the 25th, and waking up to the call of Azaan - if I'm devout anything, it's a devout human. I have no roots, for I am the roots; I am the ruin of all heritage of lies. Illegal Immigrant in every state, for I come from a Time beyond tribes.”

“The Drunken Polyglot (Sonnet 2300) I never hankered for booze or drugs, you know why - because I'm already drunk, with the most hard-hitting, brain-altering contraband in history - I'm ever consumed with languages and cultures. Latin Passion, Turkish Woundlight, Nordic Thunder, Celtic Wonder, Afro Grit, American Ambition, Arabian Adamance, Chinese Ingenuity, Indian Nonduality - like rivers running eager to meet in sea, cultures converged to bring me to life. I am vast beyond the spell of tribe, I am the ruin of all resurging reich. Call it Reich, Empire or Uncle Sam - Zionist State or Hindu Rashtra - Animal Kingdoms are found everywhere, still, reason is to reichs what phenyl is to floor.”

“I don't write on multiculturalism, I am multiculturalism, I'm the living specimen of a multicultural human from the future. Today I may be the anomaly, but tomorrow people like me will be the norm, and cultural exclusivity will be a deranged fringe practice, like witchcraft is today.”

“When Calls The Kainat (Sonnet) No matter how many years go by, how many decades, how many centuries, there'll always be some people who'd call me a fraud - don't be upset, don't hold a grudge - nothing good ever comes out of bearing grudge, just let them be - let them be and let them go, because I forgive them. Let them hate their head off, seeds of heart are already planted. Apes throw tantrum when they are insecure, pursuit of delusion soothes the vegetated. When calls the Kainat*, chatter of monkeys turn faint echoes from the past. *Cosmos chimes in my chambers of heart - veritas est pons, pons est veritas.”

“We need a civilized patriotism, one that is devoid of all sectarianism and cultural supremacy. We gotta be patriotic towards humanity, not nationality - we gotta be patriotic for justice and equality, not supremacy - we gotta be patriotic for inclusion, not the exclusive sustenance of our own dignity at the expense of the dignity of others.”

“All Roads Lead to People (Sonnet) What the world needs is character, character civilized enough to prioritize benevolence over borders, awake enough to tell right from wrong, and not kowtow to cannibal ancestors, alive enough to value first the welfare of the living over the last wishes of the dead, human enough to identify as human, beyond the gaslighting spell of prejudiced fairytales. What burns the bigots most is an unbending flame of inclusion, what the world needs is character, radiant with loving assimilation. All roads spring from people, and they lead back to the people. Whenever we deviate from each other, we are bound to end back in the jungle.”
