"Pakistan is not a nation and hardly a state. It has no justification in history, ethnic origin, language, civilization, or the consciousness of those who make up its population … Thus it is hard to see how anything but a miracle, or else a revival of religious fanaticism, will assure Pakistan's future." - American political scientist Hans Morgenthau, 1956. The quote is taken from the book, "Explaining Pakistan’s Foreign Policy: Escaping India" by Aparna Pande. Routledge: New York. 2011. Pg. 22.
