The schools play an important role when it comes down to protecting children against violence.Violence is one of the principal reasons why children don't go to school. It's also one of the causes of the alarming school dropout rates.

I want some day to be able to love with the same intensity and unselfishness that parents love their children with.

I think my dad is the only Arabic descendent who is an unsuccessful businessman.

I'm someone who has always been very stubborn and strong-willed. I never gave up.

I prefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie. If someone is telling me the truth that is when I will give my heart.

I've met dedicated people from all sectors of society who are committed to giving children the tools they need for a better future. I'm always impressed by the passionate young leaders I meet. As the pace of change accelerates, so do the challenges we face. However, the chances to solve them increase too.

You're a song written by the hands of God.
