Books are a better investment in our future than bullets. Books, not bullets, will pave the path towards peace and prosperity.

Malala Day is not my day. Today is the day of every woman, every boy and every girl who have raised their voice for their rights.

I believe the gun has no power at all.

When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.

There are many problems, but I think there is a solution to all these problems, it's just one and it's education. You educate all the girls and boys. You give them the opportunity to learn.

Our men think earning money and ordering around others is where power lies. They don't think power is in the hands of the woman who takes care of everyone all day long, and gives birth to their children.

When we imagine the power of all our sisters standing together on the shoulders of a quality education - our joy knows no bounds.
