“At the end of this journey, it seems to me that reconciling the long shadows cast by the uneasy past may ultimately depend on elements so basic that they bring to mind a simple Slav proverb I once came across and never forgot: Eat bread and salt and speak the truth. They are the recovery of fact, public accountability and the instituting of fair trials of one sort or another, to help mark ends and beginnings and to return the moral compass as close to the centre as possible.”

“What Kind of Progress is This (Sonnet)
The Earth may be full of skyscrapers,
but the soil is without home -
streets may be full of electric cars,
yet the mind hasn't moved an inch -
the skies may be full of rockets,
but the heart is buried in the jungle -
outer space may be full of telescopes,
yet the eyes are blind with hate.
No nation is holy, till its streets
are built for walking, not to starve on.
No society is advanced, till no one
is marginal, no matter the innovation.
Innovation is important, but what kind of
a moronic species races to put a man on the moon,
before it takes its homeless off the streets!
How come power hungry algorithms get endowed
with trillions of dollars in investment, yet
starving children dream of leftovers as feast!”
― Sonnets From The Mountaintop
