4."[Terror] happens because children aren't being offered a bright enough future that they have a reason to choose life over death."

-Greg Mortenson 

After the September 11 attacks occurred, lots of Americans started thinking that all muslims were terrorists but Greg had an entire different view on the situation. Even though he was half way across the world when the attacks occurred in his country, he was living with with muslims in Pakistan and had full proof that not every muslim is a terrorist. He wanted to remind Americans of this and also help give children an education so they don’t have to have a reason to choose life over death. If all students living in Pakistan and other third world countries around the world were offered a proper education like students in America, then then there might not be as much terrorism because children are educated enough to go to school and have a bright future for themselves and there family. This quote demonstrates just one reason why Greg continued to motivate others and persist to build more schools and find teachers to give children an education.
