Do not wait for me to do something for your rights. It's your world and you can change it.

Weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born.

I don't want to be remembered as the girl who was shot. I want to be remembered as the girl who stood up.

Let us pick up our books and our pens. They are our most powerful weapons. One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world.

I had 2 choices, be silent and get killed, or speak up and be killed, I chose the second option.

We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back.

If people were silent, nothing would change.

You should believe in your talent and potential. Never lose hope.

You must fight others, but through peace, and through dialogue, and through education.

Fifty seven million children across the world don't want an iPhone, Xbox or chocolates. They want a book and pen.

I am stronger than fear.

We realize the importance of our voices only when we are silenced

I am proud to be a girl, and I know that girls can change the world.

Let us make our future now, and let us make our dreams tomorrow's reality.

Extremists have shown what frightens them most. A girl with a book.

I believe in the power of the voice of women.

With guns you can kill terrorists, with education you can kill terrorism.

There is no greater weapon than knowledge and no greater source of knowledge than the written word.

Why is it, that giving guns is so easy, but giving books is so hard?
