“Against Nothing (The Sonnet) I am not against consumerism, I am not against corporations. I am not against politics and policy, I am not against politicians. I am not against fame and fortune, I am not against celebrity. I am not against entrepreneurship, I am not against technology. I am not against bureaucrats, I am not against red tape. I am not against bibles and comics, I am not against prayers and faith. I ain't against anything that serves human welfare. The moment they go astray, I'll be their nightmare.”

“Sonnet of Charity Charity doesn't end disparity, It only postpones it. Giving doesn't mean only giving, It means lifting the fallen spirit. With one hand help those in need, With another treat their environment. Don't just give money to the destitute, Lift them up so they could help themselves. The greatest charity in the world, Is to help someone become self-reliant, So that they do not need charity, From anyone ever again. Purpose of charity is not to build a world of charity, Purpose of charity is to end the need for charity.”

“One life is a moment from the driving stream of future lives. People strive for power, greatness, money, the more is the better. People lose love, sincerity, inspiration and freedom. Betray the present, destroy your rivals, climb up the ladder of superiority here in this moment of your being. But the only is a love like a talisman will be save a person and give a possibility to reach to the far bank of the river of transparent love, which can only be entered by love.”

“I was going to say the words that could have made a difference but then I saw you You were least interested to know You didn’t even bother to see the truth in my eyes I had to leave darling I had to I had no intention to end things like this But this was written It was in our fate They say, “When you end up remember there’s a new beginning waiting for you somewhere” I’ll look for that new beginning To search for a new commencing With a promise that this time I won’t look backward.”

“People often say that true love always finds its way back. Yet, in the depths of my heart. I hold the believe that our love was indeed true. Still, our paths, it seems, are destined to remain parallel, Never to converge again. And so, I release you to live in peace, Knowing that what we shared was indeed true love. But true love doesn’t always mean it will come back.”

“Travellers We study to travel in life. We study to travel in the light. There is a large space of love for us. There is a large space of death in the night. We are travellers from world to world. We are travellers from dream to dream. We need a simple thing. We need a space of beginning. All the emotions of our trip are the emotions of different lives. We remind the travellers as dreams which were made of an incredible light.”

“Sonnet of Nature What do the rivers do? Give water for our thirst. What do the trees do? Give air for our lungs. What do the animals do? Give food for our tummy. What do the flowers do? Give fragrance for our body. After taking everything, From every member of nature, What do we pompous idiots do? Destroy all natural order. It's high time to get our act together. Nature doesn't need us, but we need her.”

“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!”

“Never be an artist that starts worshiping yourself or believe your little group is better than anyone outside of it. For, you are nothing more than a grain of sand on a hillside in this world of ours. Even Da Vinci’s work is only glanced at then scrolled past on a phone or computer these days. Climb down off your throne and become humble once more.”

“At some point, I tried alcohol because I thought it would help me numb my pain. I just wanted something that would make me mellow and help ease my mental anguish. Boy, was I wrong? All it did was escalate my misery. As a matter of fact, I’d end up sobbing myself to sleep. It’s as if the liquor made my pain, suffering, and depression palpable. Don’t even consider the "devil’s drink" as a remedy. It’ll just add to your problems... Trust me, I have been there and done that.”

“لو تتفتح أزرار القمصان، كما تتفتح أزرار الورد بكامل حريتها فوق الأغصان... لتحرر نهران من العطر على أغنيتي الآن... حين تكون الحرية في السجن أجيبي: ما نفع القضبان؟ مقفلة أبوابك بالتاريخ وبالموروث وبالأوثان... وكلانا يحترق بنار الخوف ونار الرهبة والحرمان... حين تكون الآلهة سراباً أسطورياً ماذا يجدي نفعاً أن يحترق القربان؟!”
