Child rights campaigner Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzai , the youngest ever Nobel laureate, received the Nobel peace prize on Wednesday. Satyarthi , 60, is recognized for a 35-year battle to free thousands of children from virtual slave labour .

Here are top five things that Satyarthi said in his acceptance speech.

1. Children are questioning our inaction and watching our action.

2. My dream is to make every child free to develop ... There is no greater violence than to deny the dreams of children.

3. Recounting his experience with the unprivileged people, he said, "I am representing the sound of silence of millions of children who are left behind.”

4. "The credit to this honour goes to people who worked and sacrificed for freeing children," he said.

5. "I've lost two of my colleagues," Satyarthi said about his work. "Carrying the dead body of a colleague who is fighting for the protection of children is something I'll never forget, even as I sit here to receive the Nobel Peace Prize."
