"Mohabbat aur izzat e nafs (self-respect) ka apas mein bara gehra taaluq hota hai. Mohabbat sab se pehle izzat e nafs ko khatam kar deti hai. Ya banda mohabbat kar le ya phir apni izzat. Haath ki mutthi mein ye dono cheezein ek saath nahin a sakti."

"Zindagi mein ek cheez hoti hai jise compromise kehte hain. Pur-sukoon zindagi guzaarne ke liye iski zaroorat parti hai. Jis cheez ko tum badal na sako, uske saath compromise kar liya karo magar apni kisi khuwahish ko kabhi bhi junoon mat banaya karo. Zindagi mein kuch cheezein aisi hain jo hamay nahin mil sakti chahay hum rou-ein (cry), chil'la-ein (scream) ya bachon ki tarhan airyaan ragrein kyunke woh kisi dosre ke liye hoti hain. Jese tumhare parents ab kisi aur ke parents hain."

The 1st one is sooo true...it's just what I needed to hear at this moment..😳

Sometimes days are long sometimes nights.

As I was telling you, my life has never been more meaningful than it is now. No more do I feel any void in my life. God created me with fire and I transferred this fire with all its wickedness to man and I continue to do so. And all that I do gives me peace. But I have tricked man and woman into believing that their lives are empty and meaningless. And then what does he not do in order to fill these voids? But you already know that; for after all you are Man.
But in spite of all this I am terrified; so terrified that I cannot sleep at night. I am terrified of those people whom God addressed as "My followers". I know for a fact that they still exist in this world... despite all my efforts and if... if... those followers increase in number, what will happen then? These thoughts then keep me sleepless at night and restless in the day. But then my thoughts turn to all of you; all of "you". So I take a deep breath and close my eyes; at peace and at rest.

Kahin woh badshah e takht nasheen

Har cheez ka ek waqt mukarrar hota hai, yeh to insaan hai jo jaldbaaz hota hai

Aghajaan, baba jaan, bade, ammi, tai ammi sab ke naam le liye hai aap ne madam sidha sidha ye nahi bola ja raha ki aap mujh se mohbbat kar ne lagi hai iss liye mere sath rehna chahti hai.

"Zindagi mein insaan ko ek aadat (habit) zaroor seekh leni chahiye.. jo cheez haath se nikal jaye, usay bhool janay ki aadat. Ye aadat bauhat si takleefon (pain) se bacha leti hai."

This is a very beautiful thread. I have'nt watched many Pak dramas however these thought provoking lines from various dramas somehow have become dear to me.
Thankyou for quoting them. I loved Saba's lines from MZZB and then some of the lines taken from the novel are so deep.
I wanted to add dialogues from Qaid e Tanhai and Sher e Zaat but they have already been quoted. ZGH also had some of the best lines.
