Anthon St. Maarten
“Highly sensitive people are too often perceived as weaklings or damaged goods. To feel intensely is not a symptom of weakness, it is the trademark of the truly alive and compassionate. It is not the empath who is broken, it is society that has become dysfunctional and emotionally disabled. There is no shame in expressing your authentic feelings. Those who are at times described as being a 'hot mess' or having 'too many issues' are the very fabric of what keeps the dream alive for a more caring, humane world. Never be ashamed to let your tears shine a light in this world.”
Anthon St. Maarten

“I didn’t invent this twisted system that pits us against each other and makes us do crappy things for status—but I do know how to play it.”
Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé, Ace of Spades

Harishankar Parsai
“दिशाहीन, बेकार, हताश, नकारवादी, विध्वंसवादी बेकार युवकों की यह भीड़ खतरनाक होती है। इसका उपयोग महत्वाकांक्षी खतरनाक विचारधारा वाले व्यक्ति और समूह कर सकते हैं। यह भीड़ धार्मिक उन्मादियों के पीछे चलने लगती है। यह भीड़ किसी भी ऐसे संगठन के साथ हो सकती है जो उनमें उन्माद और तनाव पैदा कर दे। फिर इस भीड़ से विध्वंसक काम कराए जा सकते हैं। यह भीड़ फासिस्टों का हथियार बन सकती है। हमारे देश में यह भीड़ बढ़ रही है। इसका उपयोग भी हो रहा है। आगे इस भीड़ का उपयोग सारे राष्ट्रीय और मानव मूल्यों के विनाश के लिए, लोकतंत्र के नाश के लिए करवाया जा सकता है।”
Harishankar Parsai, आवारा भीड़ के खतरे [Awara Bheed Ke Khatare]

“People are born on this planet with no choice at all
And have to spend most of their life working to pay it off.”

Karl Wiggins
“I’m well aware that it’s been suggested by various left-wing, vegetarian, lycra-wearing do-gooders with their little pimply arses that Chavs are a consequence of a terribly unjust society. From time to time it can seem like an unjust society, no argument there, and Chavs may well be a consequence, but people who lack fire in their belly and an earnest desire to improve their situation should never be permitted to treat that as an excuse. The second they start blaming society is the very second they disempower themselves.”
Karl Wiggins, Wrong Planet - Searching for your Tribe

Christina Henry
“Most women faked half their lives daily, pretending to have their work and their family and their health completely under control, moving through the world with just enough makeup and effortless shampoo-commercial hair. They were the ones wearing beautiful cream-colored knitted sweaters in white rooms on their Instagram pages. They were the ones spouting corny philosophical sayings and talking about their many blessings. Meanwhile, they were taking prescription drugs just to stand up straight in the morning and their husbands were on their fourth affair with someone from their workplace.”
Christina Henry, Good Girls Don’t Die

Anne Frank
“Sometimes old people have really old-fashioned ideas, but that doesn't mean I have to go along with them.”
Anne Frank, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl

“There will always be prejudice in a label society.”

Neil deGrasse Tyson
“We are more likely to be swayed by a single person who testifies with passion than by a bar chart containing data compiled from thousands of people.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization

“Here’s my theory: Everyone wakes up in a good mood. It’s people and society that changes it.”
Luis Quintanilla-Jimenez

“After a century of entrenched individualism across much of the globe, we don't want to feel responsible for one another, but we are. If people are unsafe, homeless, sick, and abandones, we are responsible, even though the economic system we have set up shirks this responsibility. There is a name for a time without responsibility - it's called childhood. We aren't children, but we have created a childish politics, prone to loud tantrums where everything gets smashed. Perhaps that's why we continue to value the job and the kids and the marriage and the mortgage above all else - even when we can see, clear as a supermoon, how fragile these things are. Because we know that right now, outside these spaces, there is often no safety net, no space of home, no responsibility taken for what happens to us.”
Briohny Doyle, Adult Fantasy: Searching for True Maturity in an Age of Mortgages, Marriages, and Other Adult Milestones

“I’ll admit that I’m afraid to admit that I don’t like something sometimes, it’s like you’re expected to like certain things, and if you don’t then, you get treated like an outcast.”
Jeffrey Calhoun, The October Amaryllis

Jia Tolentino
“Misogyny insists that a woman's appearance is of paramount value.”
Jia Tolentino, Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion

Aiyaz Uddin
“What we have been made in the society is a vacuum of hate, self-destructive consuming hate, towards one another and for everyone and everything in a way that anything not belonging to us or owned by us shouldn't be belonging to others too. A race called life which could have been made to run with each other has been made to run against each other so nobody wins at life.”
Aiyaz Uddin

“Today a main trouble of my society is that, some of people have internalized their demons which are basically weakness of their character or soul or identity etc, whatever you name it, doesn't matter, and presenting themselves to outside world as if they are free of all negativity in themselves and an ideal personality which should be incisively repleced by reception of either releasing or taking under control of their demons, for example by ignoring and degrading them..”
Hale Cidal

Soroosh Shahrivar
“This is a patriarchal society. Men and boys are prized possessions.”
Soroosh Shahrivar, Tajrish

Kaida Nevemore

Ritu Negi
“To all those people who are too worried about bringing their life "On Track", the Track doesn't exist!!

It's just a matrix created by society for you to follow when they can't escape it for themselves.”

“One of the main reasons why there is so much war and anger in this world is that people don’t respect other cultures, identities, borders and freedom. Respect CUBEYOBO (Culture Beyond Your Borders) and EYO! (Educate Your Opinion).”
Mystqx Skye

Aida Mandic
“The Dark Cloud
Is the sweater that is like a community that is tightly knit
Is the zero respect that you have for bureaucratic bullshit
Is the number of times you became annoyed with investment banking
Is the intellect of an immigrant that gets bulldozed over because of social ranking”
Aida Mandic, The Dark Cloud

Hannah Mukhtar
“Oh so gently, humanity creates its disease.”
Hannah Mukhtar, Meadow of Whispers: A Floral Poetry Collection

“Be yourself, but not like that – Society.”
Anubha Saxena

“Be careful, a woman just defended herself. Society thinks that's the third sign of the apocalypse.”
Anubha Saxena

René Guénon
“If modern civilization should some day be destroyed by the disordered appetites that it has awakened in the masses, one would have to be very blind not to see in this the just punishment of its basic vice-or, without resorting to the language of morality, the repercussion of its own action in the same domain in which this action has taken place. The Gospel says 'all they that take the sword shall perish by the sword'; those who unchain the brute forces of matter will perish, crushed by these same forces, of which they will no longer be masters; having once imprudently set them in motion, they cannot hope to hold back indefinitely their fatal course. [...] The Gospel also says: 'If a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand'; this saying also applies fully to the modern world with its material civilization, which cannot fail, by its very nature, to cause strife and division everywhere. The conclusion is obvious and, even without appealing to other considerations, it is possible to predict with all certainty that this world will come to a tragic end, unless a change as radical as to amount to a complete reversal of direction should intervene, and that very soon.”
René Guénon, The Crisis of the Modern World
