I was afraid going to school because the Taliban had issued an edict banning all girls from attending. Only 11 students attended class out of 27. I want every girl, every child to be educated. I have the right to education. I have the right to play. I have the right to sing. I have the right to speak up. Even if they come to kill me... I will tell them what they are trying to do is wrong, that education is our basic right. I will get my education, if it is in home, school, or any place. They cannot stop me. -Malala Yousafxai
