More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
We are human beings, and this is the part of our human nature, that we don't learn the importance of anything until it's snatched from our hands.
Malala Yousafzai
I think life is always dangerous. Some people get afraid of it. Some people don't go forward. But some people, if they want to achieve their goal, they have to go. They have to move.
Malala Yousafzai
In Islam, it is not just your right, but your responsibility to get education.
Malala Yousafzai
It gives a message to people of love... it does not matter what's the colour of your skin, what language do you speak, what religion do you believe in. It is that we should all consider each other as human beings and we should respect each other.
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 am not here to speak against the Taliban. I'm here to speak up for the right of every child.
Malala Yousafzai
We should not wait for someone else to come and raise our voice. We should do it by ourselves. We should believe in ourselves. One day you will see that all the girls will be powerful All the girls will be going to school. And it is possible only by our struggle only when we raise our voice.
Malala Yousafzai
In some parts of the world, students are going to school every day. It's their normal life. But in other part of the world, we are starving for education... it's like a precious gift. It's like a diamond.
Malala Yousafzai
When someone takes away your pens you realise quite how important education is.
Malala Yousafzai
We felt like the Taliban saw us as little dolls to control, telling us what to do and how to dress. I thought if God wanted us to be like that He wouldn't have made us all different.
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
If you go anywhere, even paradise, you will miss your home.
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
My family and I are heartbroken after hearing the news that more than 100 innocent children and teachers have lost their lives...
Malala Yousafzai
If we want to end terrorism we need to bring quality education so we defeat the mindset of terrorism mentality and of hatred.
Malala Yousafzai
Pakistanis can't trust. They've seen in history that people, particularly politicians, are corrupt. And they're misguided by people in the name of Islam. They're told: 'Malala is not a Muslim, she's not in purdah, she's working for America.
Malala Yousafzai
I have the right of education. I have the right to play. I have the right to sing. I have the right to talk. I have the right to go to market. I have the right to speak up.
Malala Yousafzai
If you hit a Talib, then there would be no difference between you and the Talib. You must not treat others with cruelty. You must fight others through peace and through dialogue and through education.
Malala Yousafzai
My goal is to get peace and my goal is to see education of every child.
Malala Yousafzai
My father always says that heroism is in the Pashtun DNA.
Malala Yousafzai
