Notes of Oisin: From an Irish Monk to a Skaldic Poet QUOTES

1 " One learns most when one wanders the world. "

― Tamuna Tsertsvadze , Notes of Oisin: From an Irish Monk to a Skaldic Poet

2 " I've learned that, at certain points, even if we're of such different cultures, we can think alike, and understand each other easier than we may expect. "

― Tamuna Tsertsvadze , Notes of Oisin: From an Irish Monk to a Skaldic Poet

3 " Love your enemies you might, but when the entire country and its people depend on you, you are no longer a man of your own. "

― Tamuna Tsertsvadze , Notes of Oisin: From an Irish Monk to a Skaldic Poet

4 " New gods vanquish the altars of the old, so that they can reign in their full brilliance… This God of yours claims to be the protector of all sufferers yet brings demise to the cultures where He sets foot. He conquers just like all invaders do. Ideological invasion is often far more destructive than actual, physical one. "

5 " Oh, how wondrous our lives are! How everything can change but in a single instant… It is truly a miracle of God. We believe we can control our lives as we want, but in truth, we never know what’s coming up. Hence, all we can do, in the end, is enjoy the moments given, pray, and hope for the better. We must always remember that everything will change, and every moment will pass, so it should be embraced whilst it is still within our grasp. "

6 " Violence needs a cause and a purpose. Attacking an unarmed fellow? – You’re a coward. Sacrificing the blood of the innocent to gods? – You’re a beast. Saying those sacrifices are different from us? – My foot, we are all human. However, when my family, my country, my people are threatened, it is no longer only about me. When that happens and one does not take arms and pierce the heart of their enemy, again, they are a coward. "
