“I think the reason this happens is that we want to give love and we receive love.”
Benazir Bhutto (1953–2007) 11th Prime Minister of Pakistan
As quoted in "I never asked for power" in The Guardian (15 August 2002)
Context: 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.
