More quotes by Queen Rania of Jordan
I want to be that person who could sacrifice everything for others.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Women in Jordan are participating in all aspects of civil as well as political life - as female judges, parliamentarians, businesswomen. And the evolution will continue. This is not something that happens overnight.
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 hardest [part] is some of the misperceptions that are leveled against me as a person and against Muslim women.
Queen Rania of Jordan
The job description for a queen changes with the times.

Queen Rania of Jordan
Being queen is overrated.
Queen Rania of Jordan
At the end of the day, the position is just a position, a title is just a title, and those things come and go. It's really your essence and your values that are important.
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
It is all too easy to draw conclusions and make sweeping judgments about millions of Muslim women based on fleeting television images. That is not right.
Queen Rania of Jordan
Of course democracy is good, but it is a process, not a prescription.
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
There are so many misperceptions and stereotypes out there that I would love to see clarified one day.
Queen Rania of Jordan
I'd rather be dealt with as a person than a persona.
Queen Rania of Jordan
We are stronger when we listen,and smarter when we share.
Queen Rania of Jordan
When you educate a girl, you kick-start a cycle of success. It makes economic sense. It makes social sense. It makes moral sense. But, it seems, it's not common sense yet.
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
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
Muslim women must stand up and speak out about who we are, what we believe and where we are going. I think we need to know that our counterparts in the west are also willing to listen and reciprocate.
