Muniba Mazari quotes: awesome quotes from the activist.
“Success is not how well people know you. Success is how well you know yourself.”
“You are the hero of your own life story and heroes never give up.”
“Life is a test and a trial. And tests or trials are never supposed to be easy. So when you’re expecting ease from life and life gives you lemons, then you make the lemonade and then do not blame life for that, because you were expecting ease from a trial. Trials make you a stronger, better person. Life is a trial. Every time you realize that.”

“Giving up is not an option. We live in a world where you will be questioned for being nice and kind. But they will never judge you or question you for being cruel. Don’t let these people teach you to hate. Be kind anyway. Work on yourselves and try to be a better person every single day. I don’t know how my story will end. Maybe, some stories just never end.”
“Healing doesn’t come for us. It comes from us and through us.”
“Pain is not your weakness. Pain is your strength because with the pain, comes healing. Healing does not come to you, it comes from you, through you. So, today, if you are in pain, congratulations! Because you are on a journey of becoming an empath, a person who can feel the pain for others and heal the world. It all starts from this one tiny acceptance of embracing the pain. It is okay to be sad and vulnerable because it all makes you a human.”
“When you are able to change someone’s life and when you look back at your life and say that ‘I tried my best to give my best to the people around me,’ that is a real success.”
“When you share your story and it doesn’t make you cry, that means you are healed.”
“After a tragic car accident, my doctor told me I would not be able to sit, walk or give birth to a child. However, I can sit now in a wheelchair.”
“That day, I decided that I’m going to live life for myself. I am not going to be that perfect person for someone. I am just going to take this moment and I will make it perfect for myself, that I’m going to fight my fears.”
“You know, when you end up being on the wheelchair, what’s the most painful thing? People think that they will not be accepted… so I decided to appear more in public.”
“Words can make you, break you, they can heal your soul, they can damage you forever. So I always try to use the positive words in my life wherever I go. They call it adversity, I call it opportunity. They call it weakness, I call it strength. They call me disabled, I call myself differently abled. They see my disability. I see my ability.”
“Embrace what transforms you. I have learnt that accidents can happen. Accidents will happen. But, those accidents that are so powerful and strong that they change your DNA. Accidents which may somehow deform your body but they transform your soul are not just accidents. They are blessings in disguise. Because they transform you into the best version of you. So, embrace those accidents.”
“Life is unpredictable. I have learnt that life is so unpredictable. Life is full of unwanted, unexpected series of events. How in the blink of an eye everything changed. How in the blink of an eye my life changed. And, how in the blink of an eye I changed. I learnt that, with all these changes, you become a better person every single day. What life did to me does not define me. But what I became in return, regardless of all the hurt, turmoil and adversity, defines who I am. Today, with a heart full of contentment, I am blessed to be where I am.”
“Don’t be sad for your disabilities. Success accepts disables too.”

“You know what makes you perfect? When you make someone smile. You know what makes you perfect? When you try to do something good for the people around you. You know what makes you perfect? When you feel someone’s pain. And how beautiful pain is that it connects you with people. No other medium can connect you with others but pain.”
“When you accept yourself the way you are, the world recognizes you.”
“I could not find a hero in my life so I became one.”
“I always start my talk with a disclaimer. And that disclaimer is that I have never claimed to be a motivational speaker. Yes, I do speak. But I feel more like a storyteller, because wherever I go, I share a story with everyone. It is a story of a woman whose perfectly imperfect life made her who and what she is today. It’s the story of a woman who in pursuit of her dreams and aspirations made other people realize that if you think that your life is hard and you’re giving up on that, because you think your life is unfair, think again. Because when you think that way, you are being unfair to your own self.”
“I don’t know how my story will end, but nowhere in my text you’ll ever read [that] I gave up.”
“Live your life fully. Accept yourself the way you are. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to yourself. I will repeat, be kind to yourself. And only then you can be kind to others. Love yourself and spread that love. Life will be hard. There will be turmoils, there will be trials. But that will only make you stronger.”
“Be grateful and be alive and live every moment.”
“You have bigger dreams and aspirations in life. Always remember one thing, on the road to success there is always ‘we,’ not ‘me.’ Do not think that you alone can achieve things. No, there is always another person, who is standing behind you, maybe not coming on the forefront but behind you, praying for your and supporting you. Never lose that person. Never.”
“Thank you so much for all the love, for all the warmth. Thank you all for accepting me. Thank you very much.”
“Celebrate your life. Live it. Don’t die before your death. We all die.”
