Braveheart Quotes

“Americans may say they love our accents (I have been accused of sounding 'like Princess Di') but the more thoughtful ones resent and rather dislike us as a nation and people, as friends of mine have found out by being on the edge of conversations where Americans assumed no Englishmen were listening.

And it is the English, specifically, who are the targets of this. Few Americans have heard of Wales. All of them have heard of Ireland and many of them think they are Irish. Scotland gets a sort of free pass, especially since Braveheart re-established the Scots' anti-English credentials among the ignorant millions who get their history off the TV.”
― Peter Hitchens

“The Song of Naskar (Sonnet 2764)

I'm always eager to respond to human curiosity,
but I have no time to entertain ape gossip.
I don't engage with fanatics,
for the same reason I don't consume alcohol,
it's a ridiculous waste of brain cells.

For those who matter to me,
I'll go out of my way to explain myself,
if there is misunderstanding, in fact,
my brain would remain anxious till we make up.

To burn the bridges with dehumanizers
is the first requirement of civilization -
don't waste your brainpower dignifying bigots,
redirect all your neurochemical electricity
to power a new world, nonchalant to accusations.

Existence is the mightiest revolt against prejudice,
irrelevance is the loudest response to inhumanity.”
