Benazir Bhutto — "I am a symbol of struggle against dictatorship. I am a symbol of democracy."

"Military dictatorship is born from the power of the gun, and so it undermines the concept of the rule of law and gives birth to a culture of might, a culture of weapons, violence and intolerance."

"The road to democracy is often long and difficult, but it is the only road worth taking."

"To make peace, one must be an uncompromising leader. To make peace, one must also embody compromise."

"It's hard to be impartial to the man [Musharraf] who exiled me and threw my husband in prison."

"My father taught me that courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it."
