As we crossed the Malakand Pass I saw a young girl selling oranges. She was scratching marks on a piece of paper with a pencil to account for the oranges she had sold, as she could not read or write. I took a photo of her and vowed I would do everything in my power to help educate girls just like her. This was the war I was going to fight.

Malala YousafzaiI reassured my mother that it didnโt matter to me if my face was not symmetrical. Me, who had always cared about my appearance, how my hair looked! But when you see death, things change. โIt doesnโt matter if I canโt smile or blink properly,โ I told her. โIโm still me, Malala. The important thing is God has given me my life.
