More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
Our men think earning money and ordering around others is where power lies. They don't think power is in the hands of the woman who takes care of everyone all day long, and gives birth to their children.
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
There should be no discrimination against languages people speak, skin color or religion.
Malala Yousafzai
I speak not for myself, but so those without a voice can be heard. Those who have fought for their rights. Their right to live in peace. Their right to be treated with dignity. Their right to equality of opportunity. Their right to be educated.
Malala Yousafzai
I am proud to be a girl, and I know that girls can change the world.
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 tell my story, not because it is unique, but because it is not. It is the story of many girls.
Malala Yousafzai
read thousands of books and I will power myself with knowledge. Pens and books are the weapons that defeat terrorism.
Malala Yousafzai
Education is education. We should learn everything and then choose which path to follow. Education is neither Eastern nor Western, it is human.
Malala Yousafzai
As we crossed the Malakand Pass I saw a young girl selling oranges. She was scratching marks on a piece of paper with a pencil to account for the oranges she had sold, as she could not read or write. I took a photo of her and vowed I would do everything in my power to help educate girls just like her. This was the war I was going to fight.
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
Peace in every home, every street, every village, every country - this is my dream. Education for every boy and every girl in the world. To sit down on a chair and read my books with all my friends at school is my right. To see each and every human being with a smile of happiness is my wish.
Malala Yousafzai
Every girl deserves to take part in creating the technology that will change our world and change who runs it.
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
The best way to fight terrorism is not through guns. It's through pens, books, teachers and schools.
Malala Yousafzai
We must believe in the power and strength of our words. Our words can change the world.
Malala Yousafzai
It is not time to tell the leaders to realize how important education is - they already know it - their own children are in good schools. Now it is time to call them to take action.
Malala Yousafzai
If people were silent, nothing would change.
Malala Yousafzai
I want every girl, every child, to be educated.
Malala Yousafzai
My goal is to get peace and my goal is to see education of every child.
