More quotes by Malala Yousafzai
You must fight others, but through peace, and through dialogue, and through education.
Malala Yousafzai
For my brothers it was easy to think about the future. They can be anything they want. But for me it was hard and for that reason I wanted to become educated and empower myself with knowledge.
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
Education is the only solution. Education first.
Malala Yousafzai
Why is it, that giving guns is so easy, but giving books is so hard?

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
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
She explained that the bullet had entered through the side of my left eye where there was a scar, traveled eighteen inches down to my left shoulder and stopped there. It could have taken out my eye or gone into my brain. It was a miracle I was alive.
Malala Yousafzai
We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back.
Malala Yousafzai
Extremists have shown what frightens them most. A girl with a book.
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
Some people only ask others to do something. I believe that, why should I wait for someone else? Why don't I take a step and move forward.
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
They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed.
Malala Yousafzai
Let us pick up our books and pencils. They are our most powerful weapon.
Malala Yousafzai
We realize the importance of our voices only when we are silenced
Malala Yousafzai
I want every girl, every child, to be educated.
Malala Yousafzai
I want world leaders to choose books over bullets...We can afford to give every girl 12 years of free education. It is absolutely in our power, and when we do, we will realize a whole new world of possibility.
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
My goal is to get peace and my goal is to see education of every child.
Malala Yousafzai
