Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“Home Country (The Sonnet) If immigrants ain't real Americans, Neither is our revered Lady Liberty. She too came from a distant land, Yet today she is the American epitome. If even this doesn't broaden your heart, What about the founders of our history! All of them were textbook immigrants, What white supremacists cuss as refugee. Any land that holds potential for ascension, Draws the repressed souls of humanity. Though I belong to the whole wide world, Land of Lady Liberty is my home country. A nation's character isn't defined by rigidity, It is defined by a hearty unity in diversity.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 9 Thread by thread fabric is made. Heart by heart community is made. Star by star the sky is made. Shoulder to shoulder the world is made. The power of one is the power of all, Wilderness is another name for divisionism. When we are together we are civilized, Civilization is synonym for nonsectarianism. But the tragedy of the world is, Each thread thinks they are all important. And the problems faced by others, Are all considered insignificant. A world where callousness is assumed cool, Is but a billion-dollar grave of the fool.”

“Love is Not A Christian Thing (The Sonnet) Love thy neighbor is not a christian thing, Love stuck in barriers stays love no more. Shalom, ahava, simcha are not jewish concepts, Peace, love and joy constitute life's core. There's no christianity, there's only love, There's no buddhism, there's only compassion, There's no naskarism, there's only humanity, There's no humanism, there's only assimilation. Faith that raises walls within the mind, Is faith of the prehistoric savages. Faith has a place in civilized society, Only if it helps break assumptions and barriers. Let us come together across faith and culture. Let us be companions in each other's adventure.”
