“We want a world of beauty, not only that which the senses appreciate, but also the beauty perceived by an open heart and a clear mind. We want a pristine planet protected from all forms of aggression. We want a balanced and sustainable civilization based on mutual respect, and respect for other species and for nature. We want an inclusive and egalitarian civilization free of gender, race, class, and age discrimination, and any other classification that separates us. We want the kind of world where peace, empathy, decency, truth, and compassion prevail. Above all, we want a joyful world. That is what we, the good witches, want. It’s not a fantasy, it’s a project. Together we can achieve it.”
― Isabel Allende, The Soul of a Woman

“The rain fell alike upon the just and upon the unjust, and for nothing was there a why and a wherefore.”
― William Somerset Maugham, Of Human Bondage

“You cannot engrave on water
nor wound it with a knife,
which is why
the river
has no fear
of memories.”
― Girish Karnad, Hayavadana

“Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.”
― George Orwell, 1984
