More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.
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
Pakistan is a peace loving, democratic country. Pashtuns want education for their daughters and sons. Islam is a religion of peace, humanity and brotherhood.
Malala Yousafzai
Extremists have shown what frightens them most. A girl with a book.
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
Education is the best weapon through which we can fight poverty, ignorance and terrorism.
Malala Yousafzai
They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed.
Malala Yousafzai
If a woman can go to the beach and wear nothing, then why can't she also wear everything?
Malala Yousafzai
A city without books, a city without a library is like a graveyard.
Malala Yousafzai
I believe the gun has no power because a gun can only kill, but a pen can give life.
Malala Yousafzai
We are stronger than those who oppress us, who seek to silence us. We are stronger than the enemies of education. We are stronger than fear, hatred, violence and poverty.
Malala Yousafzai
When someone takes away your pens you realise quite how important education is.
Malala Yousafzai
I want every girl, every child, to be educated.
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
Instead of sending guns, send books. Instead of sending weapons, send teachers.
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
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
When I look at my goal, my goal is peace.
Malala Yousafzai
Let us pick up our books and pencils. They are our most powerful weapon.
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
