More quotes by Queen Rania of Jordan

Queen Rania of Jordan
I'd rather be dealt with as a person than a persona.
Queen Rania of Jordan
I don't think people by nature are extremists. You will never find a population of extremists. Extremists have existed throughout the centuries on all religions. And what happens is, extremists start to have more leverage when the situation is bad.
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
You cannot kill an ideology with a bullet. You can only kill it with a better idea.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Good teachers teach. Great teachers transform.

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.
Queen Rania of Jordan

Queen Rania of Jordan
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
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
Look at any country that's plagued with poverty, disease or violence the antidote is girls. Girls are the antibodies to many of society's ills.
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
Travelers are the greatest ambassadors of tolerance.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Extremism is not endemic in my region, nor is anti-Western sentiment. No doubt there is discontent and distrust. That is towards more the American and some Western policies, and not toward the American people.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Social media are a catalyst for the advancement of everyone's rights. It's where we're reminded that we're all human and all equal. It's where people can find and fight for a cause, global or local, popular or specialized, even when there are hundreds of miles between them.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Being queen is overrated.
Queen Rania of Jordan
My role models are people who can do things I say to myself, 'I wish I could do that.'
