Words of wisdom from a 16-year-old Malala Yousafzai, spoken at the United Nations, continue to resonate with timeless power:
"Let us pick up our books and pens; they are our most powerful weapons."
"One child, one teacher, one pen, and one book can change the world. Education is the only solution. Education first."
Her impassioned call for the transformative power of learning echoes the enduring truth captured nearly two centuries earlier by English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton, who wrote in 1839: “The pen is mightier than the sword.”
Malala’s words remind us that while violence may silence voices, knowledge has the capacity to uplift, liberate, and ultimately reshape the world.
