Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.

I am 55 years old now. It takes three years to write one book. I don’t know how many books I will be able to write before I die. It is like a countdown. So with each book I am praying – please let me live until I am finished.

The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is.
