I felt certain uneasiness, a strange sensation, which had comic to a head. Every evening I went to Yahya to report that Mujib [Rahiman] and I weren't making any progress, and Yahya [Khan] showed no interest. He looked away or complained about the television or grumbled because he couldn't listen to his favorite songs - his records hadn't arrived from Rawalpindi.

Yahya Khan wasn't interested in the government of the country, he was interested in power for its own sake and nothing else.

I would not let myself be intimidated by Yahya Khan, his methods had led us to disaster.

If the people wanted my head I would bow without demur. If I had lost the confidence or respect of the people I would not want to live. The tragedy of the drama is that the very opposite is true.

We(Pakistan) will eat grass, even go hungry, but we will get one of our own (Atom bomb).... We have no other choice!

If things do not change, there will be nothing left to change. Either power must pass to the people or everything will perish.
