I believe in peace. I believe in mercy.

Fifty seven million children across the world don't want an iPhone, Xbox or chocolates. They want a book and pen.

We will continue our journey to our destination of peace and education. No one can stop us. We will speak up for our rights and we will bring change to our voice. We believe in the power and the strength of our words. Our words can change the whole world because we are all together, united for the cause of education. And if we want to achieve our goal, then let us empower ourselves with the weapon of knowledge and let us shield ourselves with unity and togetherness.

My dream is to empower myself with education, and then it is a weapon.

Every girl deserves to take part in creating the technology that will change our world and change who runs it.

I think everyone makes a mistake at least once in their life. The important thing is what you learn from it. That's why I have problems with our Pashtunwali code. We are supposed to take revenge for wrongs done to us, but where does that end? If a man in one family is killed or hurt by another man, revenge must be exacted to restore nang (honor).

I am proud to be a girl, and I know that girls can change the world.
