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

When someone tells me about Malala, the girl who was shot by the Taliban – that’s my definition for her – I don’t think she’s me. Now I don’t even feel as if I was shot. Even my life in Swat feels like a part of history or a movie I watched. Things change. God has given us a brain and a heart which tell us how to live. – Malala Yousafzai

We women are going to bring change. We are speaking up for girls’ rights, but we must not behave like men, like they have done in the past. – Malala Yousafzai

Once I had asked God for one or two extra inches in height, but instead, he made me as tall as the sky, so high that I could not measure myself… By giving me this height to reach people, he has also given me great responsibilities. – Malala Yousafzai

When God created man and woman, he was thinking, ‘Who shall I give the power to, to give birth to the next human being?’ And God chose woman. And this is the big evidence that women are powerful. – Malala Yousafzai

It’s good to fight with your brothers, and it’s good to tease them to give them advice. – Malala Yousafzai
