Nations are born in the hearts of poets, they prosper and die in the hands of politicians
Sir Muhammad Allama Iqbal, was a poet, philosopher and politician, as well as an academic, barrister and scholar in British India
Sexual self-restraint is only a preliminary stage in the ego's evolution
Islam is itself destiny and will not suffer destiny
Vision without power does bring moral elevation but cannot give a lasting culture
Rise above sectional interests and private ambitions... Pass from matter to spirit. Matter is diversity; spirit is light, life and unity
A wrong concept misleads the understanding; a wrong deed degrades the whole man, and may eventually demolish the structure of the human ego
If the object of poetry is, to make men, then poetry is the heir of prophecy
I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done
The biggest shame is, to mock at something that you have in yourself.

Let our advance worrying become advance thinking and planning
Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again
I make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping
