Criss Jami
“In the land where excellence is commended, not envied, where weakness is aided, not mocked, there is no question as to how its inhabitants are all superhuman.”
Criss Jami, Venus in Arms

B.F. Skinner

B.F. Skinner, Walden Two

Gabrielle Zevin
“I love that world more, I think, because it is perfectible. Because I have perfected it. The actual world is the random garbage fire it always is. There's not a goddamn thing I can do about the actual world's code.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

Baden Powell
“Leave the world in better conditions in wich you found it.”

Jordan Ifueko
“I want to live," I said, replacing Ye Eun's lily behind my ear, "because life is . . . life is worth it. Because as long as we can imagine a better world, we should stick around to see it. Even if it doesn't exist yet. Even if we have to build it from scratch, brick by muddy brick.”
Jordan Ifueko, Redemptor

Edward Abbey
“In fact, I suspect that our only hope is disaster. Cruel tho' it is to say it, there has got to be a vast die-off in the human population -- likely including us and our families -- before the survivors find themselves in a world where a new and humble and 'religious' adaptation with nature is possible.
Disaster is not necessary; the better world could be achieved through reason and common sense and a sense of fellowship -- but most of the present human world is dead set against us. Thus I was forced to the disagreeable resolutions (not solutions) which I attempted to sketch out in the novel 'Good News.' The title is of course deliberately ambiguous.”
Edward Abbey, Postcards from Ed: Dispatches and Salvos from an American Iconoclast

Irving Stone
“Cruelty is a child of ignorance, and someday men will stop judging and condemning each other. I am really more interested in this than anything else; I wish I could make the world kinder and more humane than it is.”
Irving Stone, Clarence Darrow for the Defense

Robert Jackson Bennett
“No. There are people in this world who learned the lessons I never did, the lessons that our son has learned all too late - that you are right. There is no magic fix. That a better world can only be brought by what we give to one another, and nothing more.”
Robert Jackson Bennett, Locklands

“We can’t get seduced by the idea that if only we just rebuild the DNC we’ll be fine. We really have to jump in now to shape the narrative. The starting point—and this is the gift that abolition as an ideology and a practice has given me—is the idea that the system isn’t actually broken. Right? Because then I’m not preoccupied with trying to fix it. That’s not my goal. All I want to do is abolish and end it, therefore the imperatives of what I’m trying to do—the training, the questions, the analysis—all have to be geared towards that, and then this doesn’t force me to run around in circles plugging my fingers in the dyke everywhere as the water is just threatening to overwhelm all of us. Also, this allows me to think of how we can crowd out the current system by building the things that we want to see in the world, that will promote our well-being.”
Mariame Kaba

Aiyaz Uddin
“If you are at the top, or at the position of authority or you are at the position to make or break something of yours or others.

Remember doing good is a choice so is helping people in a way that makes them grow or helps them heal.

Such a way that the wound is healed for which people remember you forever!

On a road to life, one must ride with humility, empathy, and try to be a part of people's success, healing, or growth story.

The world already has the negative so let's now change the way the world has handed over to us and heal what is wounded, repair what is broken, and attach with what is detached.”
Aiyaz Uddin, The Inward Journey

“Let's work today to create a beautiful world for tomorrow,
Let's work today to make our world free from the sorrow,
Let's work today to save the birds so we hear again the voice of sparrow,
Let's work today to uplift ourselves from getting our minds narrow,
Let's work today to share with each other so we shouldn't borrow,
Let's work today towards righteousness so we stand with no fear in a row,
Let's work today towards the truth with truthfulness so that we grow,
Let's work today together for the betterment of each other so the grace of God upon us bestow.”

It lives on in every heart, every smile, every moment of joy, every prayer... This intimate light of consciousness rises to the sky in an eternal clamor. Silent, filled with secret hopes...”
Isa Millot, A coffee with Archangels: Light coaching for a better life

“The world is being destroyed by the rich. It is time the rich people make amends”
Avijeet Das

Avijeet Das
“Today the so called "rich and successful people" don't know about my writings. But one day they will have to read my writings and awaken from their slumber of turpitude.

My poetry is not mainstream. My stories are about struggle.

I am the voice of struggle and revolution. I represent the strugglers and fighters of the world. My words express anger and frustration against a cruel world.

The world will be ruined by the "successful and rich people." Amassing wealth seems to be the prerogative of these "rich and successful people," at the cost of the environment and betterment of the world. The disparity between the haves and the have-nots have grown to gargantuan proportions and this disparity will spark revolutions in the coming days.

It is time the "rich and successful people" make amends.”
Avijeet Das

Avijeet Das
“We don't need a lot of friends; just a few who are willing to stay true to our friendship. A few friends are real treasures without whom life would become meaningless.
This philosophy includes colleagues, students, neighbors, and all the people who we meet in life and who give us love, kindness, and support. They may not be of the same community, religion, or country but they are truly our friends in life.”
Avijeet Das

“Capitalism is exploitation of the people by billionaires.

Billionaires are enemies of the people.

In a better world, billionaires wouldn't exist.”
Oliver Markus Malloy, Inside The Mind of an Introvert

Avijeet Das
“To change our society we must make an effort to not give importance to the people who are known as the so called 'successful people' and the people who are called as 'celebrities.'

Each person in this world has to struggle and achieve many things for himself and his family. Each person is a hero or a heroine. These so called celebrities have achieved success by achieving money and fame. But that's it. Why give them the status of "Gods" ?”
Avijeet Das

“We know that love and peace are the way to a better world. We know that getting along with one another, celebrating our common humanity, appreciating our differences, that's what will move us forward, especially in these troubling times.”
