More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
The judiciary in Burma is not independent. It's widely known, everybody knows that.
Aung San Suu Kyi
You must remember that democracy is made up not only of the executive, but the legislature and the judiciary.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There is no intrinsic virtue to law and order unless 'law' is equated with justice and 'order' with the discipline of a people satisfied that justice has been done.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Part of our struggle is to make the international community understand that we are a poor country not because there is an insufficiency of resources and investment, but because we are deprived of the basic institutions and practices that make for good government.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is essential to institute a legal framework that would ensure justice and improve the quality of life in Burma immediately, because the greatest suffering among the people at the moment is caused by lack of justice and lack of the rule of law.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I've always said that the most important thing is job creation. Jobs will earn people money and build self-confidence.
Aung San Suu Kyi
One person alone can't do anything as important as bringing genuine democracy to a country.
Aung San Suu Kyi
If you want democracy, you have got to be prepared to accept the responsibilities of democracy. The people have to take part. They have to understand that they have the power to move things, and they must really commit themselves to change if they want it.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I don't seem to have time to breathe. Everything's happening so quickly, and so much is happening all the time.
Aung San Suu Kyi
When we think of the state of the economy, we are not thinking in terms of money flow. We are thinking in terms of the effect on everyday lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To have compromise you must first have dialog. That is the true path of democracy.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It cannot be doubted that in most countries today women, in comparison to men, still remain underprivileged.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I am not unaware of the saying that more tears have been shed over wishes granted than wishes denied.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The value systems of those with access to power and of those far removed from such access cannot be the same. The viewpoint of the privileged is unlike that of the underprivileged.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The last six years afforded me much time and food for thought. I came to the conclusion that the human race is not divided into two opposing camps of good and evil. It is made up of those who are capable of learning and those who are incapable of doing so.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I look upon myself as a politician. That isn't a dirty word.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Burma wants to have good relations with our neighboring countries, China and India. I do believe the United States itself wants to live in harmony with China and India. That's why we have to lay down political policies that are fair for everyone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Young people drift away from society because, in many cases, they have no hope or goals. So, hope will have to be given to the young.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Assuming the chairmanship of ASEAN isn't going to do anything about improving the lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is the love of ordinary people, in Burma, in Japan or anywhere else in the world, for justice and peace and freedom that is our surest defense against the forces of unreason and extremism.
Aung San Suu Kyi
