I Was Brought Up To Believe That

I Was Brought Up To Believe That Human Beings Are Good, Which Is Why It Shocks Me To The Core When I See Human Beings Behaving Badly.

I Found That A Whole Series Of People Opposed Me Simply On The Grounds That I Was A Woman. The Clerics Took To The Mosque Saying That Pakistan Had Thrown Itself Outside The Muslim World And The Muslim Umar By Voting For A Woman, That A Woman Had Usurped A Man's Place In The Islamic Society.

Oppression Does Not Know The Meaning Of Provincial Boundaries. Aren't Our Energies Better Spent Fighting The Common Enemy Instead Of Each Other?

The Best Revenge Is Democracy.

I Seek To Lead A Democratic Pakistan Which Is Free From The Yoke Of Military Dictatorship And That Will Cease To Be A Haven, The Very Petri Dish Of International Terrorism.
