Man is not a drop in the ocean, he is ocean in a drop

Rumi

Life itself is a great teacher. I learnt that making a name in
one's field doesn't happen by fluke or by luck, it requires hard
work and dedication. One can win if one is strong, clear headed
and clean of conscience. If I can succeed with this abnormal
body, anyone can.

Shoaib Akhtar, in his autobiography

I would like to say this to aspiring young cricketers: identify your talent so that you can nurture it. If you have the talent, don't let anything or anybody stop you from reaching your goal. Hold on to your convictions and believe in God. And ensure that you train right.

Shoaib Akhtar

"There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed."

--Ray Goforth
