Salvador Espriu
“Bev铆em a glops
aspres vins de burla
el meu poble i jo.

Escolt脿vem forts
arguments del sabre
el meu poble i jo.

Una tal lli莽贸
hem hagut d'entendre
el meu poble i jo.

La mateixa sort
ens uneix per sempre:
el meu poble i jo.

Senyor, servidor?
Som indestriables
el meu poble i jo.

Tenim la ra贸
contra bords i lladres
el meu poble i jo.

Salv脿vem els mots
de la nostra llengua
el meu poble i jo.

A baixar graons
de dol apren铆em
el meu poble i jo.

Davallats al pou,
esguardem enlaire
el meu poble i jo.

Ens alcem tots dos
en encesa espera,
el meu poble i jo.”
Salvador Espriu, Les can莽ons d'Ariadna

“Being able to do whatever we want to do is the most precious natural gift that we possess, but doing only what we ought to do is the only adequate expression of our gratitude for it.”
Jakub Bo偶ydar Wi艣niewski

“Finding the motivation to undertake your inner search needs Inspiration, vision and determination. To get there you have an obligation to be self-aware and you have a right to be grateful and compassionate with yourself and others. Don鈥檛 be afraid to ask your creator, and perhaps even those around you, for something you want, you just might get it. If you ask for something, ask for it with all your heart, because anything less is probably not worth having.”
Michael G Sawaya

Abhijit Naskar
“Instincts are older, but thoughts are recent, that's why instincts are more powerful than thoughts - that's why it takes great will power to express a thought through action, while instincts come so easily. However, if we continue practicing our thoughts long enough, eventually the instincts that hold power over us will turn powerless. And this my friend, ought to be the next step of our evolution, and that's why it's no longer merely a matter of natural selection, it's what I hereby dub "sapient selection", that is the process of determining the path of our evolution ourselves.”
Abhijit Naskar, Ain't Enough to Look Human

Nega Mezlekia
“Though the uprising had freed the vassals from any obligations they might have had to their former masters, it had yet to profit them. In fact, as the villagers had to man their new borders, build their own prisons, police their markets, and look after the judges they appointed, the amount of money that went to communal use steadily increased. Many ended up paying out more this way than they ever had under the deposed system. But the uprising was never undertaken for riches; it was about basic human dignity. Nor was it for revenge, but self-determination; not for shedding blood, but ending bloodshed. Above all, it was about realizing fair access to natural resources.

Two years after discarding the old shackles, they kissed their wives and children good-bye and headed for the trenches, many of the village men would look back at the distances they had traveled and shake their heads in disbelief. Indeed, what an exhilarating feeling it must have been for someone who had never made a decision for himself to have, finally, his destiny firmly in his grasp: to grow the crop of his choice, to paint his home the color he fancied, to marry his daughter to the man he favored, and to be able to send his children to school, all without fear of repercussions from a feudal master. What is more, the peasant no longer needed to submit himself to the humility of waiting on his master鈥檚 guests while his wife and daughter labored in the kitchen, preparing food they were not allowed to sample. The peasant might die fighting to hold on to his newly gained freedom; in the past he had always been dying fighting for someone else鈥檚 cause. This was a feeling many outsiders, Duke Ashenafi and Reverend Yimam, above all, would never understand.”
Nega Mezlekia, The God Who Begat a Jackal: A Novel

Terry Pratchett
“There was something else I was trying to say," said Rincewind, letting go of the hand. He looked blank for a moment, and then added, "Oh, yes. It's vital to remember who you really are. It's very important. It isn't a good idea to rely on other people or things to do it for you, you see. They always get it wrong.”
Terry Pratchett, Sourcery

Anne Ursu

George Galloway
“Irrespective of the result of the General Election, I believe it will be possible to argue that Scotland has voted for more democratically accountable control over Scottish affairs. Scotland's inalienable right to self-determination includes the right to decide how to exercise that right. In the General Elections of October 1974, May 1979 and I believe in the forthcoming contest, and in the referendum on the Scotland Act, the Scottish people will have expressed the wish to remain in the United Kingdom, but with a substantial measure of Home Rule. Mrs. Thatcher would have no right to ignore that expression. Repeatedly stated, it would be the clear wish of the majority of the Scottish people. To deny it would be to say that of all the nations of the world today we had no national right to self-determination.”
George Galloway, Radical Scotland, April / May 1983

Abhijit Naskar
“Do you know what strength is - forgetting sleep, romance, money I keep working without rest to unite the humans, that's my strength - a single mother working day and night so her child can have a bright future, that's her strength - a street vendor working hard since dawn for his family, that's his strength. Do you have such a strength of your own? Your ancestry, your family money, your material possessions - putting aside all these, what is your own true strength?”
Abhijit Naskar, Ain't Enough to Look Human

“There is power in you to either make the world or break the world - so what will it be?”

Ehsan Sehgal
“Self-determination against the truth, reality, and rights, is the worst physiological matter and a problem that must and should be on the table, and treated in the language of love and harmony. The right of self-determination for the law, justice, and peace, is the cream of wisdom.”
Ehsan Sehgal

“Our life is an unfinished manuscript; we constantly edit our evolving composition.”

“Each person fills their wheelbarrow of life with routine colliery and guerdons culled from a few diamond moments, all of which ingested payload forms the grist of life.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“What insistent questions must I ask and answer in order to uncover the essential truths for personal survival? Can I frame the crucial questions that self-revealing answers might stave off instant disintegration? Can I find a subject of intellectual investigation worthy of creating an enduring legacy? How do I eradicate from a secretive, brooding, and shut-in mind the insidious and incapacitating thoughts that turned me into an inert maumet or an empty-headed person? Must I accept the rheum of my timid meagerness? Alternatively, must I expunge all mucus remnants of my diseased former self? Can I shock myself awake from a zombie-like state of spiritual deadness? Can I create out of the phlegm of a frozen mind a new Adam that walks and talks for me? By destroying a former self, can I save myself and create a vessel of lifeworks that carries a stream of earnest thoughts into the minds of future readers?”
Kilroy J. Oldster

“Each of us fabricates an anaglyphic portfolio demarking our contiguous photo-essay.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“Withstanding the onslaught of life鈥檚 rapidly changing demands produces an inevitable sense of foreboding, which menacing energy spurs us to create, nurture, and protect the identity foliage that we till from the charred sphere that we exist on. Identity maintenance requires the cyclical rotation of our mossy perception of who we are and who we want to be. In setting our formative goals, we contrast the character traits exhibited by people whom we wish to emulate with the behaviorisms of people whom we do not wish to imitate.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls
