He twitted on X platform, saying, “Life has taught me not to measure a person’s age by the years of his life, but by the capabilities of his mind and the depth of his awareness, and not to measure the age of countries from the date of their independence, but by their achievements recorded in history.

Great nations are not just a set of powerful institutions, but a set of values, ethics and principles in the form of human beings.” His Highness had launched the hashtag #Life taught me in mid-2018, on his official account on "Twitter".
