Rational Thinking Quotes

“I am sick and tired of hearing, the universe knows best. If the universe knew best, no child would cry of hunger. If the universe knew best, no young girl would fall victim to human trafficking. If the universe knew best, nobody would have to struggle till death to feed their family. If the universe knew best, not a single person would ever become a refugee. If the universe knew best, not a single human being would have to suffer on the face of earth. Any universe or god that allows for such horrors to teach humanity lessons or whatever, got to be extremely sick. Insects from the sewers deserve more respect than such sick forces. The reason these horrors take place is that, contrary to all cowardly beliefs, there is no higher force concerned with human welfare. If we want these horrors to end, we gotta take the initiative to end them ourselves, without relying on prehistoric fairytales. So, stop all that supernatural nonsense, and take some responsibility for the world you live in. Stop delegating your human duties to a fictitious force and stand civilized wielding your backbone for a change.”

“From the very beginning, we have been outsourcing morality from external imaginary agencies - first it was god, then it was government. When will the human be sentient and civilized enough to draw morality from the non-imaginary depths of their own heart!”

“God is all in the mind, What's wrong with that! Art is also all in the mind, So, is art nothing but dirt! Dividers will always divide, Haters will always hate. Apes will find one excuse or another, To justify their authoritarian trait.”

“I only know of one divinity - kindness. Save kindness all else is fiction - from the fundamental facts of physics to the direst doctrines of scripture. Every construct of society must prove its worth in relation to kindness, in relation to uplift. If they can't, they require correction. And despite countless corrections if a construct fails to uphold the uplift of human condition before all else, it is the duty of the civilized beings to leave such construct behind as an appendage of human evolution.”

“Vibration and Frequency (The Sonnet) Surpass the nonsense of vibration, Surpass the nonsense of frequency. Come down to the land of mortals, Embrace the heart's simple beauty. Science is science, sentiment is sentiment, In rationalizing sentiment one breeds superstition. There is no vibration to love and community, There is no frequency to uplift and unification. Cleanse your mind of all imitation science, Just like you ought to do with bigoted holiness. Trading in one blindness for another is no sanctity, Replacing one superstition with another is no science. With the rise of oneness, theories wither and fade away. But if things are opposite, know that you are going astray.”

“Healers Don’t Exist (The Sonnet) Healers don't exist, Only humans do. Once you step outside the self, You'll see the world anew. Gods don't exist, Only goodness does. Prayers may soothe your soul, Action is what change requires. Psychics don't exist, But sanctity is everywhere. Once you stop conning your soul, The bridge ahead will vividly appear. When the heart awakens from superstition, Everybody will be hometown human.”

“Love Alone Triumphs (The Sonnet) Great people have often said, Truth alone triumphs. I am no great but a plain human, So I say, love alone triumphs. Truth may require intellect, Inquiry requires some cynicism. To be loving needs none of that, Love lights up the darkest chasm. Keep your intellect if you desire, Explore further the arc of truth. But all the discovery means nothing, If countless souls go without food. It is far better to be an insane lover, Than to be a heartless discoverer.”

“Sonnet 1010 Life is but life's religion, Life is but life's philosophy. Books may be a part of life's growth, But no book is handbook to sensibility. Take no book as life's handbook, Believe no being as life's authority. Neither me, nor any other figure, Can be north star to your senility. You are but an electric eel, You don't need second hand electricity. Generate your own electric current, And light up your part of humanity. It is time to end all lies of authoritarianism, And take the leap of living faith across divisionism.”

“Modern society is modern because of its mental cocktail of reasoning and compassion. Turn the compassion network in the brain off, and it will be a society of heartless robots. On the other hand, turn the reasoning network off, and it will be a society of dumb sentimental apes.”
