Life Of Service Quotes

“Tools and Fools (The Sonnet) I am a scientist but, I don't care about science. I am a monk but, I don't care about enlightenment. I am a philosopher but, I don't care about philosophy. I am a theologian but, I don't care about theology. I may use a lot of tools, But that's what they are - tools. They are meant to serve society, Not look down on people as fools. When the tool rules, user turns a tool. Human above all else - lo the supreme rule.”

“A selfish heart is an ever-consuming desert - no matter how much water you pour, it still wants more, whereas an unselfish heart is an ever-giving ocean - no matter how much water you draw, it still has plenty to give everyone.”

“I Write to Destroy You (The Sonnet) I don’t write to pamper your ego, I don't write to give you comfort. I don't write to teach you self-love, I write to destroy all selfish thought. I don't write to inspire your pride, I don't write to cater to your insecurity. I don't write to entertain shallowness, I only write to abolish self-centricity. I don't write to tickle the instaslaves, I don't write to peddle false perfection. I don't write to lick the privileged boots, I write to make soldiers of self-annihilation. My science and my art were born on the street. That's where I learnt, all suffering is born of greed.”

“The point at which things happen is a decision. In stead of focusing on yourself, focus on how you can help someone else.”

“Unselfishness is the only love there is. In my teenage years I fell in love with humankind. Ever since then I've been an insane drunkard. I am so drunk with love for the people of earth that all the alcohol in the world holds no appeal for me.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 24 Who is to build the world? Who is to raise the society? Who is to water the plants? Who is to stand up for sanity? Who is to bear agony for community? Who is to go hungry feeding another? Who is to heal the sick while bleeding? Who is to lift the lowly trotting fire? Who is to burn alive to bring light? Who is to walk on thorns to build the bridge? Who is to be deceived yet stay humble? Who is to lay down so others can climb the ridge? It is you, o misfit, o explorer of impossibility, Even if no one joins us, our world is our responsibility!”

“In Work Be Restless (The Sonnet) In work, be restless, In love, be limitless, In care, be oceandeep, In service, be selfless. In virtue, be skywide, In justice, be incorruptible, In integrity, be unbending, In honor, be uncompromisable. In culture, be without walls, In courage, be endless, In compassion, be senseless, In character, be borderless. Life's too grand to be wasted in gutter. Expand your heart and you'll rise higher.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 4 Raise your power in silence, Become a dynamite of resilience. Head high and chest emboldened, March on with uncorrupt conscience. Be the heart that loves and lifts, Be the hand that shares might. Feel the talk and talk the feel, Be the mirror of sight beyond sight. Be the first when no one comes, Be the last when all are gone. Be the one who sits not still, Be the rays of a dutiful dawn. You are the order you seek outside. To be human is to put coldness aside.”

“There is no light at the end of the tunnel, for the very tunnel of darkness is a myth born of a selfish mind. Trample selfishness and the whole tunnel will turn into an infinite valley of light and liberty.”
