I was reading Allama Iqbal's Zarb-e-Kaleem last night and came across the following verses, which I think perfectly represent Pakistan's present political situation:
Main kaar-e-jahan se nahi aagah w'laikin
Arbaab-e-nazar se nahi posheeda koi raaz
Kar tu bhee hukumat kay wazeeron ki khusaamad
Dastoor naya, aur nai daur ka aagaaz
Maloom nahi, hai yeh khushaamad ke haqeeqat
Keh day koi ullu ko agar "raat ka shehbaz!"
Don't argue with ignorants. They will first drag you down to their level and then beat you with their experience.
