1 " The more you study, the more you know; how less you know. "
― Imran Khan
2 " The war on terror is the most insane and immoral war of all time. The Americans are doing what they did in Vietnam, bombing villages. But how can a civilised nation do this? How can you can eliminate suspects, their wives, their children, their families, their neighbours? How can you justify this? "
3 " When I was older, I found Iqbal's work hugely inspirational. He argued against an unquestioning acceptance of Western democracy as the self-governing model, and instead suggested that by following the rules of Islam a society would tend naturally towards social justice, tolerance, peace and equality. Iqbal's interpretation of Islam differs very widely from the narrow meaning that is sometimes given to it. For Iqbal, Islam is not just the name for certain beliefs and forms of worship. The difference between a Muslim and a non-Muslim is not merely a theological one - it is a difference of a fundamental attitude towards life. "

4 " There are greater goals in life than material and sensual pleasures "
5 " When you remove the concept of reward and punishment on merit, the result is the utter destruction of social fabric. "

9 " I felt like the Islamic scholar Muhammad Abduh (1849-1905), who said on his return from a trip to Europe to his homeland Egypt 'I saw no Muslims in Europe but I saw a lot of Islam,' and of his homeland 'There are a lot of Muslims here but no Islam. "
10 " There is so much debate about moderate and radical Islam but there is only one Islam. "

12 " I want you all to stand like the Muslims who stood with La ilaaha ilalla for Truth and Right "

18 " Say goodbye to the IMF once and for all as the IMF's conditions enriches the rich and impoverishes the poor. "
19 " It is not defeat that destroys you,it is being demoralized by defeat that destroy you. "
