Let us become the first generation to decide to be the last that sees empty classrooms, lost childhoods and wasted potential

When someone takes away your pens you realise quite how important education is.

I told myself, Malala, you have already faced death. This is your second life. Don't be afraid — if you are afraid, you can't move forward.
Malala Yousafzai

I don't want to be remembered as the girl who was shot. I want to be remembered as the girl who stood up.
Malala Yousafzai

I had two options. One was to remain silent and wait to be killed. And the second was to speak up and then be killed. I chose the second one. I decided to speak up.

My goal is to get peace and my goal is to see education of every child.

There are many problems, but I think there is a solution to all these problems, it's just one and it's education. You educate all the girls and boys. You give them the opportunity to learn.

Education is the only solution. Education first.

I am not against anyone. Neither am I here to speak in terms of personal revenge against the Taliban or any other terrorist group. I am here to speak for the right of education for every child. I want education for the sons and daughters of the Taliban and all the terrorists and extremists.

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
Image
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
Image
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).

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.

I tell my story, not because it is unique, but because it is not. It is the story of many girls.

I am proud to be a girl, and I know that girls can change the world.

Ignorance allowed politicians to fool people and bad administrators to be re-elected.

Every girl deserves to take part in creating the technology that will change our world and change who runs it.
