More quotes by Queen Rania of Jordan
I'd rather be dealt with as a person than a persona.
Queen Rania of Jordan
It's about using social media for social change: creating a community of advocates who can use their voices on behalf of the voiceless, or leverage their talents, skills, knowledge, and resources to put more children into classrooms, or pressure their elected representatives to get global education top of the agenda.
Queen Rania of Jordan
We are stronger when we listen,and smarter when we share.
Queen Rania of Jordan

Children keep us in check. Their laughter prevents our hearts from hardening. Their dreams ensure we never lose our drive to make ours a better world. They are the greatest disciplinarians known to mankind.

We're programmed to believe that time is the enemy, that it takes away from us or that it diminishes us. I have found that it's done the opposite to me. Life is in perfect balance. It's just that our perception of it isn't.

Queen Rania of Jordan
You cannot kill an ideology with a bullet. You can only kill it with a better idea.
Queen Rania of Jordan
There are so many misperceptions and stereotypes out there that I would love to see clarified one day.
Queen Rania of Jordan
The more time goes on, the closer I am to the ground. I've been exposed to so many issues and people living under different pressures. It's helped me realize that a lot of glamorous things that people prioritize really don't matter.
Queen Rania of Jordan
A woman caring for her children a woman striving to excel in the private sector a woman partnering with her neighbors to make their street safer a woman running for office to improve her country - they all have something to offer, and the more our societies empower women, the more we receive in return.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Holy scripture does not hold women back. It's the people that decide to interpret it in such a way for their own, sometimes political, agendas.
Queen Rania of Jordan
I think generally, in life, I try to always ensure that there are periodic moments where I do venture out of my comfort zone, because that's what keeps you alive. That's what keeps you from getting stale.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Whatever title or office we may be privileged to hold, it is what we do that defines who we are ... Each of us must decide what kind of person we want to be-what kind of legacy that we want to pass on.
Queen Rania of Jordan
My role models are people who can do things I say to myself, 'I wish I could do that.'
Queen Rania of Jordan
People sometimes think of 'queen' as a title that's shrouded with protocol and formality, and for that reason sometimes people are not easily saying what they want to say. They're reluctant to express their opinions, and I kind of find that frustrating because I want to know what people really, really think.
Queen Rania of Jordan
The job description for a queen changes with the times.
