Braveheart Quotes

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 19 Be humble to the lowly, And gentle to weak. Be a dinosaur to the phony, And a stone wall to the critic. It is a mad, mad world, Where the naïve is up for abuse. Be naïve and simple on the inside, But learn when it's time to act a douche. Some bullies only understand strength, If needed keep your strength at hand. A few firm roars of your conviction, Will make the oppressors wet their pants. But be very cautious while using your strength, Reckless power turns even a saint into tyrant.”

“Occasionally even I fall short in the strength department, and in those times of heartache and loneliness, never do I say, "please, take away my weakness", instead I utter, to whom I don't know, and I don’t care, "give me strength". Or perhaps, I do know to whom I am saying it, but it took me a long time to accept the hard reality of the matter. As long as I keep it a secret as to who is the source of my strength, people will speculate and bring in all sorts of mystical notions, due to the lack of facts, but the moment I reveal to you most blatantly and rather clearly that, I am the source of my own strength, then suddenly all the mysticism and mystery vanish into thin air, and what remains is the exuberant radiance of truth.”

“The Song of Naskar (Sonnet 2764) I'm always eager to respond to human curiosity, but I have no time to entertain ape gossip. I don't engage with fanatics, for the same reason I don't consume alcohol, it's a ridiculous waste of brain cells. For those who matter to me, I'll go out of my way to explain myself, if there is misunderstanding, in fact, my brain would remain anxious till we make up. To burn the bridges with dehumanizers is the first requirement of civilization - don't waste your brainpower dignifying bigots, redirect all your neurochemical electricity to power a new world, nonchalant to accusations. Existence is the mightiest revolt against prejudice, irrelevance is the loudest response to inhumanity.”

“If you take a diamond and put it in a museum, does it try to impress people! It does not. Yet people start gathering around to bask in its glory. Let your humanity shine and the whole world will fall at your feet - even if your clothes are dirty and wallet is empty.”

“Cast aside all caution from sleeping creatures, for they know not the meaning of destiny - to them destiny is out of their hands, so they shiver in imagination all their life - they make their own prison of misery and insecurity and die in it every day - but you my friend, you who is a human, you who is alive and not dead, you who is awake with not practicality but responsibility - not with insecurity but with love - are not bound by destiny, for destiny is fantasy invented by the weak - those who are strong and determined make their own reality out of their blood and sweat.”

“Ain’t No Sinner (The Sonnet) When we think ourselves weak, We become weak. When we think ourselves sinner, We become sinner most meek. Yes we are fundamentally cruel and divisionistic, Yes the evil in us is stronger than our good. That's because our ancestors survived through cruelty, They didn't have much scope to practice their good. But we ain’t our ancestors in our way of life, We don’t have to watch out for predators in every bush. Then why do we still behave like predators ourselves, Why don’t we break this tribalistic tradition of ambush! No more cruelty either on ourselves or on those around! Embolden your backbone into a fountain of kinship unbound.”

“Ben seni rahat etmeye gelmedim, Ben seni berbat etmeye geldim. I have come to destroy every last trace of the prehistoric you, so that a new human can usher into a new world - a kind world, a curious world, a human world.”

“Vagabond Light (The Sonnet) When the tide of realization comes, Theories and concepts cause but decay. In the kingdom of absolute oneness, Stoneage constructs wither and fade away. What am I gonna do with theories! I'm no intellectual obligated to be a smartass. I am but a fakir, a vagabond who knows nothing. So I submit myself at the mercy of the lovers. I'm tired of trying to be important to the shallow, I'm tired of trying to make sense to the senseless. Adjusting to prehistoric habits of a dualistic world, The mind loses touch with its magical magnificence. Let the light shine bright, dim it not to suit the prisoners! Does the sun come with a dimmer, because its radiance dimwits cannot bear!”

“I am no human - I am the unifying force of nature - I am the One and I am the All - in me lies the possibility of human harmony - in me lies the possibility of human acceptance - I am the driving force of conscience - I am the absolute timeless ocean of unified sentience.”
