“When The Pillar Gets Weary (Dervish Sonnet 2776) I don't utter a single word that I wouldn't want to become part of the canon, but person can't live on discipline alone, so, having no lover to take my armor off for, I found a different way to vent my vulnerability - in the mainstream work I'm a pillar of strength, while turkish is quite literally my love language - english is the language where my brain feels at home, turkish is the language where my heart finds rest - none my mothertongue, yet both are my first language, with spanish as my occasional substitute for english. English is not my mothertongue, english is my brother tongue - spanish is not my mothertongue, spanish is my cousin tongue - turkish is not my mothertongue, turkish is my lover tongue. My territory is planet earth - humanity, my civilization. Figure what I didn't mention, you'll learn the law of assimilation.”

“Forget the canon, you can't even make sense of my titles, bleating like nationalist livestock, and chanting like brainless bacon - you have to have a certain amount of multicultural tendency, which in a way, is your first test of pilgrimage, moreover, it's the key to the Naskar Canon. If you have no desire to step outside your culture, there's no point in grabbing any of my text, you might as well pick up a chinese or arab text, and expect to be an expert while speaking only English.”

“Monkeys have a deranged jungle instinct of yapping about their religion, nation and culture, which is why I made it a point to erase mine, for I say again, I exist for I dissolve in all. My life is the experiment I leave to the world; neither failed, nor successful, I am just a humanizing mutation.”

“Tierra Carta (Charter of Earth, S2498) Nationality and religion are like blood groups, it has no relation to human capacity and character, despite the superstitions and conspiracy theories; morons are found in every corner of the world, just like mavericks are found in every corner. The only difference between blood groups and nationality is that, blood groups are a fundamental factor of medical treatment, whereas nationality and religion are fleeting vestiges of an adolescent species. I opened my eyes and couldn't find a single precedent of post-national, post-religion, post-lingual, post-cultural existence, so I became the precedent. My roots go deep down to the core of earth, spread across the bones and marrow of the human race.”
