Diane Kalen-Sukra
“A government of the people, a democracy, has room for peaceful civil disobedience—a practice that appeals to the humanity and sense of justice of the opposition (not defined as the 'enemy') and insists that we do all, in fact, belong to the beloved community.”
Diane Kalen-Sukra, Save Your City: How Toxic Culture Kills Community & What to Do About It

Juansen Dizon
“Every poem that I've created was yours. I thought they were mine, but they were yours. And I wish I could've kept them. And I wish I could've kept you.”
Juansen Dizon, Confessions of a Wallflower

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“Let us put it generally: if a regime is immoral, its subjects are free from all obligations to it.”
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago, 1918-1956: An Experiment in Literary Investigation, Books V-VII

Ève Curie
“an intellectual betrayed his mission if he was not the most constant defender of civilization and freedom of thought”
Ève Curie, Madame Curie: A Biography

Juansen Dizon
“Sometimes it’s just lying in bed and staring at the ceiling listening to the same song over and over again as it slowly loses its meaning. Sometimes it’s how people go mad because they couldn’t tame the darkness that was growing within them over time. Some days it’s a girl waking up without her soul. Some nights it’s a boy falling asleep with his spirit crushed. Sometimes it’s someone wanting to lose themselves to a person, but instead, they push that person away.

Solitude only becomes a prison when you do not love yourself. And even if you do love yourself it’s still a very dangerous thing, and the very benefits of it are the stars shining in its purest darkness.

Solitude isn’t always pretty but also are the truths that we find within ourselves when we learn to find solace in it.”
Juansen Dizon, I Am The Architect of My Own Destruction
