I think of it often and imagine the scene clearly. Even if they come to kill me, I will tell them what they are trying to do is wrong, that education is our basic right.

More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
So today, we call upon the world leaders to change their strategic policies in favor of peace and prosperity. We call upon the world leaders that all of these deals must protect women and children’s rights. A deal that goes against the rights of women is unacceptable.
Malala Yousafzai
I am not here to speak against the Taliban. I'm here to speak up for the right of every child.
Malala Yousafzai
We like to put sacred texts in flowing waters, so I rolled it up, tied it to a piece of wood, placed a dandelion on top, and floated it in the stream which flows into the Swat River. Surely God would find it there.
Malala Yousafzai
Do not wait for me to do something for your rights. It's your world and you can change it.
Malala Yousafzai
You know, my father was a great encouragement for me because he spoke out for women's rights, he spoke out for girl's education. And at that time I said that why should I wait for someone else, why should I be looking to the government, to the army that they would help us? Why don't I raise my voice, why don't we speak up for our rights?
Malala Yousafzai
Malala Day is not my day. Today is the day of every woman, every boy and every girl who have raised their voice for their rights.
Malala Yousafzai
I don't want awards, I want my daughter. I wouldn't exchange a single eyelash of my daughter for the whole world.
Malala Yousafzai
Education is the only solution. Education first.
Malala Yousafzai
I believe the gun has no power because a gun can only kill, but a pen can give life.
Malala Yousafzai
There is no greater weapon than knowledge and no greater source of knowledge than the written word.
Malala Yousafzai
I want education for the sons and daughters of the Taliban and all the terrorists and extremists. I do not even hate the Talib who shot me. Even if there was a gun in my hand and he was standing in front of me, I would not shoot him. This is the compassion I have learned from Mohamed, the prophet of mercy, Jesus Christ and Lord Buddha.
Malala Yousafzai
In Islam, it is not just your right, but your responsibility to get education.
Malala Yousafzai
In many parts of the world, especially Pakistan and Afghanistan, terrorism, war and conflict stop children to go to their schools. We are really tired of these wars. Women and children are suffering.
Malala Yousafzai
When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.
Malala Yousafzai
If a woman can go to the beach and wear nothing, then why can't she also wear everything?
Malala Yousafzai
My family and I are heartbroken after hearing the news that more than 100 innocent children and teachers have lost their lives...
Malala Yousafzai
Ignorance allowed politicians to fool people and bad administrators to be re-elected.
Malala Yousafzai
I thought that words and books and pens were more powerful than guns.
Malala Yousafzai
I think everyone makes a mistake at least once in their life. The important thing is what you learn from it. That's why I have problems with our Pashtunwali code. We are supposed to take revenge for wrongs done to us, but where does that end? If a man in one family is killed or hurt by another man, revenge must be exacted to restore nang (honor).
Malala Yousafzai
And if we want to achieve our goal, then let us empower ourselves with the weapon of knowledge and let us shield ourselves with unity and togetherness.
Malala Yousafzai
