“When you preserve streams, you preserve rivers. When you preserve rivers, you preserve lakes. When you preserve lakes, you preserve seas. When you preserve seas, you preserve oceans. When you preserve oceans, you preserve the world.”

“Will and Wheel (The Sonnet) Where there is a will, there is a wheel. Where there is intent, there is upliftment. Where there is heart, there is less dirt. Where there is content, there is less torment. Where there is simplicity, there is sanity. Where there is luxury, there is degradation. Where there is sharing, there is serenity. Where there is moderation, there is ascension. Where there is love, there is acceptance. Where there is division, there is judgment. Where there is selflessness, there is joy. Where there is self-absorption, there is lament. The requirement of civilization is simply this. We are to have the will to love and the will to lift.”

“Politics is The New Opium (The Sonnet) I started writing on politics to impress a girl, Then she left for a native white, balkan alternative. But I was too deep in the pickle to leave politics, Eventually the struggling nobody arose a global native. Originally I was inclined towards writing on religion, But soon I realized justice is the religion of tomorrow. And the world's notion of religion is beyond repair, Terms of religion lost their charm to me more and more. Religion was the opium for the masses of yesterday, Politics is opium for the masses of today. But politics of pop culture is not what I work on, My politics is not left or right, but mostly grey. As a brain scientist, my work is to dissect human nature. If it makes way for a better society, that's a great honor.”

“Civil Discourse (The Sonnet) Be a friend to the just, But a parent to the unjust. There is no place for hate, Restrain the hater, but do not hurt. The paradigm of revolution needs reform, We must make it grow out of cruelty, For cruelty is not the cure for cruelty, We must treat it with the light of sanity. It is a sad state of affairs when, Violence becomes a part of civil discourse. How can we possibly call ourselves civilized, If mere disagreement breaks out into violent uproars! So I repeat, cruelty is not the answer to cruelty. Work to destroy hate without destroying the human spirit.”
