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.

Extremists have shown what frightens them most. A girl with a book.

If people were silent, nothing would change.

This is the philosophy of nonviolence that I have learned from Gandhi, Bacha Khan and Mother Teresa.

Education is the power terrorists fear most.

They will not stop me, I will get my education, if it is in home, school or any place

I thought that words and books and pens were more powerful than guns.
