Ukrainian War Quotes

“Ask us for water, we won't let you go unfed, but do not mistake our gentleness as fear. If you so much as lay a finger on our home, we'll defend it with our blood, sweat 'n tears.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The Gentalist: There's No Social Work, Only Family Work

“I Am Ukraine (The Sonnet)

Peace doesn't come through prayers,
Peace comes through responsible action.
When the invader stomps on innocent lives,
Not choosing a side is a consent to oppression.
Ask us for water, we won't let you go unfed,
But do not mistake our gentleness as fear.
If you so much as lay a finger on our home,
We'll defend it with our blood, sweat 'n tears.
We ain't no coward to selfishly seek security,
When our land is being ransacked by raccoons.
When the lives of our loved ones are at stake,
We'll break but never bend to oligarchical buffoons.
The love of our families is what keeps us breathing.
To preserve their smiles, we shall happily die fighting.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The Gentalist: There's No Social Work, Only Family Work

“We are bleak mirrors
that show not only the killing of our enemies
but also keep witness of our souls diminishing;
and we are bullets that fire at the enemies
yet destroy ourselves within the fire -
we have nothing left but grief
inside our own hands
that are washed empty of remorse
by the blood of our own people and the innocent
(on either lines).”
― Laura Chouette
