The Taliban should keep it in mind that one of us has to die one day. And if I die early, it does not matter. I will continue my campaign and I'm going back to Pakistan as soon as possible. And I want to be a politician. And, through politics, I am going to serve my mission, and I'm going to work for education for every child.

Let us become the first generation to decide to be the last that sees empty classrooms, lost childhoods and wasted potential

I don't want awards, I want my daughter. I wouldn't exchange a single eyelash of my daughter for the whole world.

We should not wait for someone else to come and raise our voice. We should do it by ourselves. We should believe in ourselves. One day you will see that all the girls will be powerful; All the girls will be going to school. And it is possible only by our struggle; only when we raise our voice.

My dream is to see every girl educated, in every country.

We should not be followers of traditions that go against human rights...we are human beings and we make traditions.

If one man can destroy everything, why can't one girl change it?
