Benazir Bhutto
I am constitutionally competent to contest the elections. View quote

The United Nations charter gives every nation the right to self defence, therefore when the American embassies were bombed it was a matter of time before the Americans responded by going for what they suspected were the causes of the attack. View quote

I find that whenever I am in power, or my father was in power, somehow good things happen. The economy picks up, we have good rains, water comes, people have crops. I think the reason this happens is that we want to give love and we receive love. (Benazir Bhutto)
Right now, they feel they have lost their voice, and their miseries have increased since my departure. View quote
