“I am not going to respect. Gray hairs unless there is wisdom beneath them.”

No struggle can ever succeed without women participating side by side with men.

My message to you all is hope, courage and confidence.

Think 100 times before you take a decision, But once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man.

Any idea of a United India could never have worked and in my judgment it would have led us to terrific disaster.

You will have to make up for the smallness of your size by your courage and selfless devotion to duty, for it is not life that matters, but the courage, fortitude and determination you bring to it.

Religion should not be allowed to come into Politics. Religion is merely a matter between man and God.

My message to you is: build up physical strength not for aggression, not for militarism, but for becoming fighting fit, all your life and all the time in every walk of life of your nation wherever you be and always to be a force for peace, international amity and goodwill.

I do not believe in taking the right decision, I take a decision and make it right.

There are two powers in the world; one is the sword and the other is the pen. There is a great competition and rivalry between the two. There is a third power stronger than both, that of the women.

Expect the best, Prepare for the worst.

I have full faith in my people that they will rise to every occasion worthy of our past Islamic history, glory and traditions.

That freedom can never be attained by a nation without suffering and sacrifice has been amply borne out by the recent tragic happenings in this subcontinent.

We are now all Pakistanis – not Baluchis, Pathans, Sindhis, Bengalis, Punjabis and so on – and as Pakistanis, we must feet behave and act, and we should be proud to be known as Pakistanis and nothing else.

I have one underlying principle in mind: the principle of Muslim democracy. It is my belief that our salvation lies in following the golden rules of conduct set for us by our great lawgiver, the Prophet of Islam.

You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place or worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed – that has nothing to do with the business of the State.

Pakistan not only means freedom and independence but the Muslim Ideology which has to be preserved, which has come to us as a precious gift and treasure and which, we hope other will share with us.

Yes I have made a lot of money and I have a lot of respect, my films have done well, and I know there are loads of loads of people who look up to me and really love me. I really just thought this is like a strange dream. I have never thought this is a success – I don’t have a standard.

We are but one of the multitude, in no respect better than any other in it.

We can win respect in the world only if we are strong internally and can banish poverty and unemployment from our country.

Treat yourself with the same love and respect you want to show to others.

In a world where so many yearn to be liked I rather be respected.

I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.

A man’s ego is just as sensitive as a woman’s self-esteem.

I do not label anyone as wrong or bad. I accept them and my respect heal them.
