“Handcrafted Humanity Sonnet 7

Give, give and give again,
To give without reserve is living.
Fall, fall and fall again,
To fall without stopping is rising.
Break, break and break again,
To break without bending is integrity.
Lose, lose and lose again,
To lose without submitting is victory.
Love, love and love again,
To love despite being fooled is sanity.
Help, help and help again,
To help despite being deceived is humanity.
To give is to live, that is the civilized normal.
Kindness alone sets the human apart from animal.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Handcrafted Humanity: 100 Sonnets For A Blunderful World

“When I was little, I had a children’s book called ‘Guldhjerteâ€� [Goldheart], which I had very clear and happy memories of. It was a picture book about a little girl who goes into the forest with some slices of bread and other stuff in her pockets. But at the end of the book, when she’s gotten through the forest, she’s standing there naked and with nothing left. And the last line in the book was: ‘But at least I’m okay,â€� said Goldheart. I read the book several times, in spite of the fact that my father thought it was absolute rubbish. The story of 'Breaking The Wavesâ€� probably comes from that.”
― Lars Von Trier

“The gift cannot be received unless it is given, for otherwise it would cease to merit its name.
