Talent or intelligence doesn’t matter, Its your dreams that will decied how big a person you will become
Because I'm anti-war, I've been called pro-Taliban,
I am called an Islamic fundamentalist by Rushdie. My critics in Pakistan say I am a Zionist agent. I must be doing something right.
It's more important to try to do something for the crores of poor people of my country.
It is not defeat that destroys you,it is being demoralized by defeat that destroy you.
The more you study, the more you know; how less you know.
I have always believed that one should not be scared of losing, I think that really is the key.
Cricket is a pressure game, and when it comes to an India-Pakistan match the pressure is doubled.
I want to have a president in the U.S. who tries to win the hearts and minds of the Muslim world.
I guess this is where I feel I was probably different from other cricketers. I was not satisfied, so I was always pushing myself harder.
That's why, in spite of being defeated regularly in elections, I am not leaving the field. It's tough, but then I love challenging tasks.
