I want to serve. I want to serve the people. I want every girl, every child, to be educated.

A city without books, a city without a library is like a graveyard.

My family and I are heartbroken after hearing the news that more than 100 innocent children and teachers have lost their lives...

When I look at my goal, my goal is peace.

It is not time to tell the leaders to realize how important education is - they already know it - their own children are in good schools. Now it is time to call them to take action.

If he [the Talib] comes, what would you do Malalala? If you hit a Talib with your shoe, then there will be no difference between you and the Talib. You must not treat otherswith cruelty...you must fight others but through peace, through dialogue and through educationthen I'll tell him [the Talib] how important education is and that I even want education for your children as well that's what I want to tell you, now do what you want.

I do not even hate the Talib who shot me. Even if there was a gun in my hand and he was standing in front of me, I would not shoot him.
