Criss Jami
Always seek justice, but love only mercy. To love justice and hate mercy is but a doorway to more injustice.
Criss Jami, Healology

Abhijit Naskar
Naskaradeniz, Sonnet 2412 (The Planet Dervish) Where your hope ends, there my stubbornness begins. Where gods stay cripple, there my duty begins. Where law fails order, there my justice begins. Where state fails society, there my civilizing begins. Where schools fail truth, there my curiosity begins. Where science fails empathy, there my intervention convenes.
Abhijit Naskar, Sonnets From The Mountaintop
