Lover of wisdom
Mankind will never see an end of trouble until... lovers of wisdom come to hold political power, or the holders of power... become lovers of wisdom. ~Plato, The Republic
Javed Hashmi may be a lover of wisdom but he hasn't hold political power. Politics is concerned with right or left not with the right or wrong. It is a game of favored and unfavored, once Javed Hashmi was president of the party and now in the lefts one. He is deeply hurt as he suffered a lot in the hands of Musharraf as a president of PML(N) but when the fruits reaped the Sharifs, Nisar and like benefited. What we could ask to the nation which may grow up in centuries or may not ever.
There are many men of principle in politics in Pakistan, but there is no party of principle. Another quote of Plato seems very relevant:
"Those who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being governed by those who are dumber". ~Plato
