“Every country has its local beacon of humanity -
if you are American, think like MLK -
if you are South African, think like Madiba -
if you are Indian, think like Narendranath Dutta -
if you are Azerbaijani, think like Nasimi -
if you are Turkish, think like Mustafa Kemal.
But If the whole charade of nationality feels meaningless to you, then you may come
and walk beside Naskar.”
