One of my friend sent me an email with following quotes and after reading them I couldn’t resist to post it on my blog. These quotes are wonderful and ultimate truth.

Whenever I find the key to success, someone changes the lock.

To Err is human, to forgive is not a COMPANY policy.

The road to success…….. is always under construction.

In order to get a Loan, you first need to prove that you don’t need it.

All the desirable things in life are either illegal, expensive or fattening.

Since Light travels faster than Sound, people appear brighter before you hear them speak.

When in a queue, the other line always moves faster and the person in front of you will always have the most complex of transactions.

If you have paper, you don’t have a pen……. If you have a pen, you don’t have paper…… if you have both, no one calls.

You will pick up maximum wrong numbers when on roaming.

Why is it that when you dial a wrong number, it is never busy?

After a long wait for bus no.20, two 20 number buses will always pull in together and the bus which you get in will be crowded than the other.

If your exam is tomorrow, there will be a power cut tonight.

Software is harder than it sounds.

There is only one thing that money can’t buy and that is POVERTY.

A University professor at a well known institution of higher learning challenged his students with this question. “Did God create everything that exists?”

A student bravely replied, “Yes he did!”

“God created everything?” The professor asked.

“Yes sir, he certainly did,” the student replied.

The professor answered, “If God created everything; then God created evil. And, since evil exists, and according to the principle that our works define who we are, then we can assume God is evil.”

The student became quiet and did not respond to the professor’s Hypothetical definition. The professor, quite pleased with himself, boasted to the students that he had proven once more that their faith was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, “May I ask you a question, professor?”

“Of course”, replied the professor.

The student stood up and asked, “Professor does cold exist?”

“What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?”

The other students snickered at the young man’s question. The young man replied, “In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat. Everybody or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-273 C) is the total absence of heat; and all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature. Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat.”

The student continued, “Professor, does darkness exist?”

The professor responded, “Of course it does.”

The student replied, “Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact, we can use Newton ’s prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn’t this correct?

Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.”

Finally the young man asked the professor, “Sir, does evil exist?”

Now uncertain, the professor responded, “Of course, as I have already said. We see it everyday. It is in the daily examples of man’s inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil.”

To this the student replied, “Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God’s love present in his heart. It’s like the cold that comes when there is no heat, or the darkness that comes when there is no light.”

The professor sat down.

PROLIFIC scorer Mohammad Yousuf says the best thing about his world record for the most Test runs in a calendar year is his country will be mentioned whenever people talk about the new landmark.

“I am happy this world record has Pakistan’s name,” said Yousuf, who beat West Indian great Viv Richards’ 30-year-old mark with his 124 on the fourth day in the third Test against the West Indies today (AEDT).

“I would like to dedicate the record to my mother, my wife and my brothers who have been a great support and are very happy about my success,” said Yousuf, who rose from the slums of Lahore to make his Test debut in 1998.

Yousuf said his record was for his country.

“It is a great honour to create a world record.

“You play for your country, which is a great privilege, and to create history is a matter of great pride,” said Yousuf, who also set a new Pakistan mark for a three-Test series score of 665.

The 32-year-old right-handed batsman drove paceman Corey Collymore to the boundary to cross Richards’ record tally and went on to set a new mark of 1,788 Test runs in 11 Tests.

He also scored his ninth century of the year, beating his own record of eight that he set on Monday in the first innings. One of the previous holders for the century record was Richards, again in 1976.

Yousuf also equalled Australian great Don Bradman’s record of scoring six centuries in successive Tests – although it took him only five matches compared with Bradman’s six.

But Yousuf played down the comparison with Richards and other Pakistani greats.

“I still feel that Richards and Brian Lara are the two greatest batsmen of this century,” he said.

“I had followed Richards in my childhood and think he should still be regarded as the greatest.

“Lara is the best batsman of my time, scoring 400 runs in a Test innings is no mean achievement and Lara has done it,” said Yousuf, referring to the master West Indian’s highest Test score made against England at St. John’s in 2004.
