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.

More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
When I look at my goal, my goal is peace.
Malala Yousafzai
I don't know why people have divided the whole world into two groups, west and east. Education is neither eastern nor western. Education is education and it's the right of every human being.
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
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
We call upon all communities to be tolerant, to reject prejudice based on caste, creed, sect, colour, religion or agenda to ensure freedom and equality for women so they can flourish. We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back.
Malala Yousafzai
There was a time when women activists asked men to stand up for their rights. But this time we will do it by ourselves. I am not telling men to step away from speaking for women’s rights, but I am focusing on women to be independent and fight for themselves.
Malala Yousafzai
They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed.
Malala Yousafzai
My goal is to get peace and my goal is to see education of every child.
Malala Yousafzai
When someone tells me about Malala, the girl who was shot by the Taliban - that's my definition for her - I don't think she's me. Now I don't even feel as if I was shot. Even my life in Swat feels like a part of history or a movie I watched. Things change. God has given us a brain and a heart which tell us how to live.
Malala Yousafzai
There should be no discrimination against languages people speak, skin color or religion.
Malala Yousafzai
The extremists are afraid of books and pens, the power of education frightens them. they are afraid of women.
Malala Yousafzai
The terrorists thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions. But nothing changed in my life except this: weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born.
Malala Yousafzai
Extremists have shown what frightens them most. A girl with a book.
Malala Yousafzai
Do not wait for me to do something for your rights. It's your world and you can change it.
Malala Yousafzai
Education is the only solution. Education first.
Malala Yousafzai
Ignorance allowed politicians to fool people and bad administrators to be re-elected.
Malala Yousafzai
Books are a better investment in our future than bullets. Books, not bullets, will pave the path towards peace and prosperity.
Malala Yousafzai
I think that the best way to solve problems and to fight against war is through dialogue. For me the best way to fight against terrorism and extremism... just a simple thing: educate the next generation.
Malala Yousafzai
Let us become the first generation to decide to be the last that sees empty classrooms, lost childhoods and wasted potential
Malala Yousafzai
The best way to fight terrorism is not through guns. It's through pens, books, teachers and schools.
