Я - Малала. Уникальная история мужества, которая потрясла весь мир

Жизнь - это борьба с трудностями, а не просто процесс вдыхания кислорода и выдыхания углекислого газа.

Один ребенок, один учитель, одна ручка и книга могут изменить мир.

Когда нацисты пришли за коммунистами, я молчал, я же не коммунист.
Потом они пришли за социал-демократами, я молчал, я же не социал-демократ.
Потом они пришли за профсоюзными деятелями, я молчал, я же не член профсоюза.
Потом они пришли за евреями, я молчал, я же не еврей.
Потом они пришли за католиками, я молчал, я же не католик.
А потом они пришли за мной, и уже не было никого, кто мог бы протестовать.

In Pakistan when women say they want independence, people think this means we don’t want to obey our fathers, brothers or husbands. But it does not mean that. It means we want to make decisions for ourselves. We want to be free to go to school or to go to work. Nowhere is it written in the Quran that a woman should be dependent on a man. The word has not come down from the heavens to tell us that every woman should listen to a man.

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.

We liked to be known as the clever girls. When we decorated our hands with henna for holidays and weddings, we drew calculus and chemical formulae instead of flowers and butterflies.

Kindness can only be repaid with kindness. It can’t be repaid with expressions like ‘thank you’ and then forgotten.

Is Islam such a weak religion that it cannot tolerate a book written against it? Not my Islam!

I love physics because it is about truth, a world determined by principles and laws—no messing around or twisting things like in politics, particularly those in my country.

Life isn't just about taking in oxygen and giving out carbon dioxide.
