More quotes by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
If things do not change, there will be nothing left to change. Either power must pass to the people or everything will perish.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto

Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Yahya Khan] thought of nothing but acquiring beautiful cars, building beautiful homes, making friends with bankers, and sending money abroad.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Tikka Khan won't try to stick his nose in politics.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Yahya Khan ] I have a big problem on my hands with him. I've set up a war commission to study the responsibilities inherent in the recent conflict.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Tear gas, rubber bullets, and I would have arrested all the leaders. Oh, only a disgusting drunkard like ex-President Yahya Khan could have sullied himself with an operation carried out so badly and bloodily.

Pakistan was once called the most allied ally of the United States. We are now the most non-allied.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Tikka Khan] went to East Pakistan with precise orders and came back by precise orders. He did what he was ordered to do, though he wasn't always in agreement, and I picked him because I know he'll follow my orders with the same discipline.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
What can you say of a leader who starts drinking as soon as he wakes up and doesn't stop until he goes to bed? You've no idea how painful it was to deal with Yahya Khan. He was really Jack the Ripper.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Mujib Rahman] is mad, mad! And they're all mad, the press included, who repeat after him, Three million dead, three million dead! The Indians had let out the figure of one million. He came along and doubled it. Then tripled it. It's a characteristic of the man - he'd done the same for the hurricane.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Yahya Khan ] had given me an appointment for the following day. And, days later, General Mohd Umar revealed to me that he'd resorted to this stratagem so that I'd stay in Dacca and see the efficiency of the army. I give you my word of honor that all this is true.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I am guiding you to seek truth from the facts of the historical conditions of our society and to identify the problems. The correct solutions will come with the correct identification of the problems.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I'm not trying to minimize things I'm trying to bring them back to reality.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Mujib [Rahman] talks at random, depending on his mood and the disorders of his sick mind.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Yahya Khan wasn't interested in the government of the country, he was interested in power for its own sake and nothing else.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Lets build a monument for the veto. Lets build a monument for impotence and incapacity.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Let's talk about the other story: the women raped and killed. I don't believe it. Certainly there was no lack of excesses, but General Tikka Khan says that in those months he often invited the population to report abuses to him directly.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Every government, every country, has the right to exercise force when necessary.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
There's only one man really responsible for those events - Yahya Khan. Both he and his advisers were so drunk with power and corruption they'd even forgotten the honor of the army.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Mujib [Rahman], as you've seen, is a congenital liar. He can't help telling lies - it's something stronger than he.
