“Good sports facilities are a blessing.”

I always breathe cricket.

All artists are crazy.

I have no political aspirations. That’s it.

Though teenagers are generally very interested in sports, they must realise that education is the most important thing in their lives. They must find the right balance.

Irrespective of any political party, I am a supporter of good people who want to do something for the society.

The hunger to win must not die. The appetite has to remain big.

Try and understand: cricket was played by Commonwealth countries only; now it has started in other countries as well, and I am proud of that.

When I was a boy, cricket was very, very English. Anyone who spoke English and anyone from a big town could play. And that was it.

Spirituality lies in what you do and how you do it and not what result you get.

People never expected a boy from a small town to have a life like I did.

The next generation has always been and will be better than the previous one. If it is not, then the world would not be moving forward.

Maybe a day will come when we may have to just put on a pair of glasses and see sports events.

As a sportsman, my aim was to help sportspersons grow. The idea is to see what is good for sport rather than what’s good for individuals.

Let me clarify it through the national news agency that I am not joining Aam Aadmi Party. There has been reports that I will be officially joining AAP, but I can assure you that nothing of that sort is happening.

If you play good cricket, a lot of bad things get hidden.

I don’t look into negative things. Go past mistakes and look forward.

No one knows whether death may not be the greatest of all blessings for a man, yet men fear it as if they knew it was the greatest of evils.

He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

I know I’m blessed because yo’ stress is realer than anything I done been through.

Wealth does not bring goodness, but goodness brings wealth and every other blessing, both to the individual and to the state.

The feeling we catching, my love is a blessing.

When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.

Go be a blessing. Your miracle is waiting for you as you help others.
