Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“Arabi Azadi Ashiqui (The Sonnet) The more you persecute a certain community, the more you'll find me your fiercest enemy. Defending that community with my last breath, I shall remind you of your own utter futility. The more you dehumanize a certain people, more you'll find me your uncorrupt impediment. The people will be safe, even if I'm annihilated - In the process, world will witness your impotence. More you criminalize a certain community, more in my eyes you lose right to dignity. Honor is earned through behavior, not by excuse of throne, scripture or nationality. Systemically propagate fear all you want - In the end, you're at mercy of my civilian judgment. Belonging is my bible, conscience is my koran - Behave like a bully, and I'm your celestial guardian. Whenever intolerance raises its fangs, hiding behind menorah, saffron or crucifix, Every Samaritan must become Samurai - Every Civilian - Arabi, Azadi, Ashiqui!”

“There is a karbala in each of you, there is a kurukshetra in each of you, there is a jerusalem and chanakkale in each of you. And till you accept defeat out of your own free will, not a force in the world can dampen the daring advances of love and reason.”

“There is no sunrise without sacrifice, There is no unity without inclusion. There is no love without conviction, There is no justice without unsubmission. No sewage is ever sanctified without sewage-workers, No society is ever civilized without reformers. No mutation ever occurs without an anomaly, No world is brought to life without love-laborers.”

“Beyond the Nature of Truth (The Sonnet) Do you realize how serious the situation is, Are you aware of the lives ruined by cruelty? Because if you stay aloof in your cloud castle, All talk of humanity is but a tale of fantasy. Can you tell the real from the unreal, Can you tell facts from fantasy? I am not talkin' in terms of neuroscience, I am askin' you as a human, of human responsibility. We can argue about the nature of truth all we want, But that won't alleviate the suffering of society. So the question is, do you know the worth of life, How far will you go to preserve another's serenity! Does human welfare overpower your insecurity? Or is the self still separate from society?”
