Ziaur Rahman: Cytaty po angielsku
“I did not capture power. I was made to assume power.”
Ziaur Rahman's speech during a press conference.
[Anthony Mascarenhas, 'Bangladesh: A Legacy of Blood', Hodder and Stoughton, London, 1986, 124, 0-340-39420-X]
“Eventually an effective political ideology cannot be based on any certain religion.”
After the formation of Bangladesh Nationalist Party, Zia took initiative for formation of political institutes and sponsored workshops for the youth to get active political lessons on Bangladeshi nationalism.
Kontekst: Eventually an effective political ideology cannot be based on any certain religion. Religion can offer some contribution, but an entire political activism cannot be oriented in accordance with religion. Political history of this region has the example of religion-based politics attempted during Pakistan era and it failed. Not only in Islam, people in other religions of many regions try to keep on politics based on religion. It's not right. It's important and it should be remembered.
“We must not be beggars. Why should we beg? We have something to offer.”
During an interview with The New York Times reporter, Kevin Rafferty in October 1976.

“Do you think I wish to hang Taher? Well, I don’t. But the Law of the Land should carry its Course.”
And he (Colonel Abu Taher) did not send any Mercy Petition and so what is there for me to do?
