Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“What Kind of Progress is This (Sonnet) The Earth may be full of skyscrapers, but the soil is without home - streets may be full of electric cars, yet the mind hasn't moved an inch - the skies may be full of rockets, but the heart is buried in the jungle - outer space may be full of telescopes, yet the eyes are blind with hate. No nation is holy, till its streets are built for walking, not to starve on. No society is advanced, till no one is marginal, no matter the innovation. Innovation is important, but what kind of a moronic species races to put a man on the moon, before it takes its homeless off the streets! How come power hungry algorithms get endowed with trillions of dollars in investment, yet starving children dream of leftovers as feast!”

“Real love is reassuring.Real love is having the comfort of knowing that in your darkest hour someone will love you the same. I was away from real love for some time and became dependent on self-love to keep me sane. It wasn't until real love came back around that I noticed that it was missing. It was that family love that, even though I said I was okay, knew what I needed all off of intuition. I've had people love me in my success and turn their backs on me in my momentary failures. I've worked very hard in order to impress the social standards and did all of this just for my family to still love me for me. When society asks, "How are you doing?", they usually mean your accomplishments. When real love asks, "How are you doing?", they usually mean your soul. Real love is addictive. I hope you find it. Love is forever.”

“True genius is the one of the heart, not of intellect. Because intellect-less heart, though exploited a lot, still does good, whereas heartless intellect, with or without the awareness of it, ends up only exploiting others. But here's the thing, even true genius of intellect is not without its fare sense of responsibility towards the society. It's only the genius of halfbaked intellect that has absolutely no sense of service towards society - the only sense they have towards society, is that of domination or control. That is why one of the guardians of nuclear physics, Albert Einstein though initially encouraged the US government in a letter, to develop a nuclear weapon of their own against the Nazi nuclear program, ended up being an outspoken activist of nuclear-disarmament, and called his letter to Roosevelt "one great mistake of life". That is why the mother of radioactivity, Marie Curie never made a dime out of her discovery of radium, because to her, even amidst obscurity, science was service, unlike most so-called scientists of the modern world. That is why the man who literally electrified the world with his invention of alternating current, Nikola Tesla embraced happily other people stealing his inventions, and died a poor man in his apartment. You see, it's easy to make billions out of other people's pioneering work, the sign of true genius is an uncorrupted sense of service.”
