In every country, politics is considered to be a waste of time. – Malala Yousafzai

I speak not for myself but for those without voice… those who have fought for their rights… their right to live in peace, their right to be treated with dignity, their right to equality of opportunity, their right to be educated. – Malala Yousafzai

I want education for the sons and the daughters of all the extremists, especially the Taliban. – Malala Yousafzai

In many countries, they do not even keep track of how girls are doing in school, or if they are there at all. If we say, ‘Girls count,’ then we must count girls, so we can see if we are really making progress in educating every girl. – 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

And also I didn’t want my future to be just sitting in a room and be imprisoned in my four walls and just cooking and giving birth to children. I didn’t want to see my life in that way. – Malala Yousafzai
