Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“All The World's An Asylum (Sonnet 1235) All the world's an asylum, All the people are lunatics. Some are but loonies of love, Some loonies run by prejudice. Some die running in love of currency, Some die sharing the currency of love. Beyond the grasp of dollar and euro, Love is the only nonvolatile currency in the world. It's good to be a loonie, If the reason is justly humane. When human welfare is at stake, It's only logical to be insane. Sane, insane - be as the need arises, To hell with the judgment of nitwits! In an organic world no sanity is absolute, Boldly walk the spectrum as the purpose fits.”

“The One of My Heart (The Sonnet) I see the one of my heart, In every direction, in every face. Yet I won't say a word, In silence I'll bear all coldness. You may throw me out of your heart, But you can't oust yourself from mine. You are in every pore of my being, You are my only lifeline. You are the one that runs in my nerves, As the power-grid of my mind. The pain of being a one-sided lover, Is sweeter to me than a thousand goldmines. Cuss me, mock me, hurt me all you like. All I care about is to be an aid in your life.”

“Lover off The Street (A Sonnet) Beauty and bliss are all around, When my feet walk alongside yours. Life reaches the pinnacle of being, When I'm annihilated for a smile of yours. Climbed plenty hills, trotted plenty jungle, Nowhere did I find a drop of sanity. Then I stood crazy before your radiance, And I got drenched in beams of serenity. I am but a naïve lover off the street, Without a single trace of intellect. The only thing that I've learnt in life is, In your happiness lies my upliftment. Business is measured by how much we receive, Life is realized when we stand hellbent to give.”

“Kindness is intention absolute, Goodness is belief absolute. Service is wisdom absolute, Humanity is education absolute.”

“Let them be bonkers for money if they want, let them be bonkers for facts if they want, let them be bonkers for dogmas and traditions if they want. As for you, be bonkers for the uplift of those around you, and for that if you have to compromise your intellect at times, then be it - but never - I repeat, never, ever compromise your humanity for anything in the world.”

“You may be a teacher, you may be a janitor, you may be a waitress, you may be a scientist, preacher or artist –whatever you are, whatever you do, do it for the people – so that those who have nothing, can learn to walk again, smile again, live again, because of you.”

“Just A Human Sonnet Emotion first, Attire later. Simplicity first, Sovereignty later. Friendship first, Faith later. Goodness first, God later. Morality first, Nationality later. Peace first, Patriotism later. Let nothing be a hindrance to humanity, Fulfilment of life lies in universality.”

“I am here to build an army of self-sacrificing humanitarians across space and time, to march unafraid in the course of equality, inclusion and ascension, fortified with accountability, reason and acceptance. So my question to you is - are you that army? If you are, then chisel this in your brain with the indelible ink of determination - your gospel is goodness, your religion is service, your church is society.”

“You don't need to memorize the bible - you don't need to turn water into wine - you don't need to have an unlimited supply of bread in your basket to be a miracle worker, you just need to have the capacity to share the one bread you have with someone hungry.”

“If I give you two possible worlds to choose from, in which you would like your children and grandchildren to live, which one would you choose - a world filled with hatred and discrimination, or a world where the humans care about their fellow humans beyond the petty little man-made labels of religion, race, nationality, intellect, gender etc.! We do not need to make efforts and be kind in order to keep Nature running, she can do that quite well and far better than us herself, in fact, it'd benefit Nature, if suddenly the humans were to disappear. It is us who need Nature in order to exist, not the other way around. We must stand on the side of kindness, goodness, compassion and conscience, not to keep the processes in Nature functioning, but because if we don't, the environment that we would be giving our future generations, would be no different than the violent and lethal environment of the wild. Hence, our kindness would make no difference to Nature whatsoever, rather it would simply be a selfish yet humanely necessary act on our part, that we must carry out to create a humane environment for the human species. Upon the kindness of us humans, the fate of humanity is predicated, not the fate of Nature. We are born in a world filled with hatred and discrimination, hence it is our existential responsibility as sentient and conscientious beings to contribute in the elimination of such discrimination and hatred. Kindness of ours in our daily walks of life, shall pave the path for a truly humane society for our children and grandchildren to live in.”

“People are the alpha - people are the omega - no law, science, art and religion should ever forget that. Law exists so long as it has the consent of the people - science exists so long as it has the consent of the people - art exists so long as it has the consent of the people - religion exists so long as it has the consent of the people.”

“Simple, Sonnet Serenity is born of simplicity, Insecurity is born of clutter. Patience empowers perseverance, Selfishness brings down disaster. But what's a life without difficulty, Difficulty delivers durability. Don't be ashamed of darkness in life, It's in darkness we shine most brightly. There's nothing shameful about fear, It's a problem when the reason is baseless. Trouble of privilege is trouble of lies, Reject all privilege and rush to the helpless. It is human nature to shed tears when in agony, Taking pain to wipe another's tears is humanity.”
