Failure Is A Word Unknown To Me.

That Freedom Can Never Be Attained By A Nation Without Suffering And Sacrifice Has Been Amply Borne Out By The Recent Tragic Happenings In This Subcontinent.

I Have Full Faith In My People That They Will Rise To Every Occasion Worthy Of Our Past Islamic History, Glory And Traditions.

We Have Weathered The Worst Storms And The Safety Of The Shore, Though Distant, Is In Sight. We Can Look To The Future With Robust Confidence Provided We Do Not Relax And Fritter Away Our Energies In Internal Dissensions. There Never Was Greater Need For Discipline And Unity In Our Ranks. It Is Only With United Effort And Faith In Our Destiny That We Shall Be Able To Translate The Pakistan Of Our Dreams Into Reality.

You Are Free; You Are Free To Go To Your Temples, You Are Free To Go To Your Mosques Or To Any Other Place Or Worship In This State Of Pakistan. You May Belong To Any Religion Or Caste Or Creed - That Has Nothing To Do With The Business Of The State.

I Sincerely Hope That They (relations Between India And Pakistan) Will Be Friendly And Cordial. We Have A Great Deal To Do...and Think That We Can Be Of Use To Each Other (and To) The World.
