Mujib [Rahman], as you've seen, is a congenital liar. He can't help telling lies - it's something stronger than he.

That Mujib [Rahiman] had been arrested I found out at eight in the morning, when I left. How did I take it? I was glad he was alive and I thought they might have maltreated him a little. Then I thought that his arrest might help to reach a compromise. They wouldn't keep him in prison more than a month or two, and in the meantime we'd be able to bring back law and order.

I am guiding you to seek truth from the facts of the historical conditions of our society and to identify the problems. The correct solutions will come with the correct identification of the problems.

Mrs. [Indira] Gandhi can rightly boast of having won a war, but if she won it, she should first of all thank Yahya Khan and his gang of illiterate psychopaths.

Tikka Khan won't try to stick his nose in politics.

I tried to explain that there was a great difference between me and Mujib [Rahiman]: he was a secessionist and I wasn't.

A regime which puts in a bunker the highest law in the land does not have the moral authority to say that nobody is above the law.
