Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“This is Not Us (The Sonnet) This is not us, Practicing savages abhorrent. This is not sapiens, Intelligent yet filthy indifferent. Some think we are advanced, But self-absorption is no advancement. Some say we have built a free world, But irresponsible freedom is mere derangement. Fancy clothes and accessories make no human, Nor do those shallow etiquettes. When we have no kindness for others, We are just good-looking cannibals. This cannot be the definition of humanity. Need of the hour is a life of inclusivity.”

“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.”

“Sonnet of Nation Building Nation means not land, Nation means not border. Nation means sentience and sanity, Nation means willing to treat disorder. Nation means not habit, Nation means not tradition. Nation means reason and acceptance, Nation means conscious amalgamation. Nations means not law, Nations means not policy. Nation means a genuine goodness, Nation means an accountable citizenry. In the name of nation do not act tribal. Nation without narrowness is a land universal.”

“Either Aşkistan or Junglistan (A Sonnet) Ours is either aşkistan, Land of love founded on amity, Or it is an archaic junglistan, Run by contagious self-centricity. What is civilized is also unselfish, For selfishness makes the animal, Across the self there is humanity, What is unselfish is also accountable. Technology may bring comfort, But it doesn't ensure ascension, When comfort belongs to the privileged, Such progress is mere descension. Over 3 billion years have gone in selfishness, It's time to unself our soul and rise as sapiens.”
