Kailash Satyarthi

Every child matters. If we fail our children, we are bound to fail our present, our future, faith, cultures, and civilisations as well.

Every single minute matters, every single child matters, every single childhood matters.

I dream for a world which is free of child labour, a world in which every child goes to school. A world in which every child gets his rights.

I've conducted an experiment on my kids. Instead of denying them access to media, I've encouraged it. They read comic books, play Nintendo and watch way too much TV.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.

Nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in a lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope.
