Zitat des Tages von Imran Khan:
If your house is burning, wouldn't you try and put out the fire?
I have always believed that one should not be scared of losing, I think that really is the key.
Because I'm anti-war, I've been called pro-Taliban.
It's more important to try to do something for the crores of poor people of my country.
If one area I felt it was a tough election was I couldn't see my young son and I couldn't see my wife a lot, but apart from that for her also it was an experience.
But I don't need to use politics as a way of making money.
But having set myself these goals, I had to work really hard to achieve them.
Pakistan needs to have decentralisation and a good local government system.
One is actually the democracy here, you know, people are, people assume that this election means that there is democracy in Pakistan. There is no democracy.
During my 21 years of playing cricket, I have never been approached by anyone or offered a bribe.
I did not lose this election, or had a bad result compared with what we might have got because of Islam.
So for us any gain we had in election, one vote that we got, was a win.
In Pakistan politics is hereditary.
I don't know about whether I thought I would make it this big.
Just give it everything you've got and bowl as fast as possible.
People didn't wasn't the People's party to come in to power again, so they saw NS a viable alternative not us, because everyone knew we were not ready.
But ultimately it comes down to how the team performs on the day.
And when the pressure was on us, the team handled it very well. One has to learn to play well under pressure.
The team which handles the pressure best, carries the day.

What most people didn't realize in the Western countries is that here its not a question of having supporters, its a question of getting these votes to the polling stations.
The future of Indo-Pak cricket will depend on how the peace process goes.
Terrorism is you winning hearts and minds of people.
I feel an independent accountability commission should audit all government services.
What I perceive, is above all justice, where everyone has the same law.
In fact the experience at Oxford has really helped me later in life.
The team that is going to win is the one that does its homework the best by studying its opponents.
Win or lose today I am proud of the way my boys have played in the tournament.
Personally I don't think solving corruption is such a big problem.
I wanted to be an outstanding player, that was my ambition.
You don't kill your way to peace.
They do not understand Islam, and I think that is one area where perhaps I hope one day I will play a role in actually making people understand what we perceive Islam to be.
Cross-cultural marriage is difficult, especially when one person has to live in another country. But I thought there was a very good chance of it working because people grow together if they have a common passion.
I am called an Islamic fundamentalist by Rushdie. My critics in Pakistan say I am a Zionist agent. I must be doing something right.
At the moment we have a ruling class that has one law and the people the other.
