Social Work Quotes

“It's time we change the very definition of patriotism - it's time we break our primitive loyalty to land and culture and foster a sense of servitude in its place - servitude towards the helpless - servitude towards the oppressed - servitude towards the destitute.”

“Remember my friend, everybody wants to have a family of their own, but what about the greater family called humanity beyond the personal domain of individual existence! Who will take care of them, if not you! Your blood is full with vigor my brave soldier of destiny, so bring all that vigor out in the service of your family called humanity.”

“The problem is, in a world of humans the humans focus on everything else but humanity. If we wipe out humanity from our fancy equations, then we only wipe out ourselves. With such acts of fallacy how can we expect there to be any advancement in the world whatsoever? Even our very notion of advancement is all messed up. Our notion of advancement prioritizes colonizing Mars over feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless. If this is advancement, then the pioneers of such advancement are nothing but cancer on the face of earth. And just like you don't collaborate with Adolf Hitler, you don't collaborate with such pioneers, that is, with toxic billionaires. If you do, then you are no better than those rich and reckless kids of emerald mine owners. So I say again, the fate of this world lies in the hands of the civilians - everyday, ordinary civilians. When the civilians are responsible, the world is well - when the civilians are sapient, the world is swell.”

“No judgment, no mockery, no grudge, no assumption - just fall. Fall head over heels for the world, like you did for your first love. Remember the loss of appetite, remember the sleeplessness, remember the constant desire to see them - once you feel that kind of intense attachment to the world, that day the world will have a true lover - that day the society will have a high voltage human.”

“High Voltage Sonnet Once upon a time I said to thee, Awake, Arise, Stop not till thou write thy destiny! Two score later I said to thee, Give me blood, and I'll give thee liberty! Time passed and some life got much fancier but, Division and disparity remain ever so horrid. We have made great strides on the outside yet, In the mental domain we remain ever so brutish. A twenty watt brain once accountable, Electrifies the universe. But when selfish and indifferent, Even 20 million of them cannot do diddly-squat. Fetch those cables from your spinal cord, Awake, arise, and electrify this dampened world!”

“International organizations have played a pivotal role is strategic implementation of social policy measures which has led to strengthening the individual fabric of a given society of a single given nation having a trampoline impact effecting the surrounding nations. Much has been done in the past and much is still being done. The question remains would we reach an ideal place of social perfection? That remains a question till this decade, and it seems to me that it will always remain a question!”

“Mission over Recognition (The Sonnet) Let me show you what is action without expectation! What is it to do your duty, without regard for recognition! Quite often I lose count of my works, Yet I've never had a fancy book launch. I write in silence, I release in silence, I have no relation to praise and applause. I am the peak of humanitarian literature, All without an ounce of support or award. I am not a writer, I am world reformer, My first concern is an integrated world. Whatever happens next, know that it had nothing to do with the making of a mission. It's easy to bask in the glory of the sun, not so much to fuel solar combustion.”

“Sonnet 1143 Give me some sunshine, Give me some rain! Why the hell am I asking you, When I'm the steward of my own reign! Ship of society is sinking, O Young and Bold, now hail the helm! Come to the rescue of those lost at sea, To hell with the nonsense of shame and fame! My religion is to rescue the fallen, My creed to care for the persecuted. Faith, reason, nation, I heed none, Obliterated in love heart is illuminated. Shedding all fears both ragged and posh, Let's go play in the courtyard of the cosmos!”
