Failure is a word unknown to me.

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

Democracy is in the blood of Musalmans, who look upon complete equality of manhood [mankind]…[and] believe in fraternity, equality and liberty.

You have to stand guard over the development and maintenance of democracy, Islamic social justice and the equality of manhood in your own native soil.

India is not a nation, nor a country. It is a subcontinent of nationalities.

The great majority of us are Muslims. We follow the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (may peace be upon him). We are members of the brotherhood of Islam in which all are equal in rights, dignity and self-respect. Consequently, we have a special and a very deep sense of unity. But make no mistake: Pakistan is not a theocracy or anything like it.

It is only with united effort and faith in our destiny that we shall be able to translate the Pakistan of our dreams into reality.
