Peter O'Toole Quotes

The great irony was that under the British, government of India, including the Pakistan area was quite good.

Pakistan has a very corrupt and incompetent government—both military and civilian. However, at the time this quotation was made, the leaders of Pakistan were hopeful about and committed to good and democratic government. But neither ever happened.
