More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
I do not hold to non-violence for moral reasons, but for political and practical reasons.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We will surely get to our destination if we join hands.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Despotic governments do not recognize the precious human component of the state, seeing its citizens only as a faceless, mindless -- and helpless -- mass to be manipulated at will. It is as though people were incidental to a nation rather than its very life-blood.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The struggle for democracy and human rights in Burma is a struggle for life and dignity. It is a struggle that encompasses our political, social and economic aspirations.
Aung San Suu Kyi
In terms of the history of a far reaching movement, 20 years is not that long.
Aung San Suu Kyi
In Burma, we need to find out what we have to do in order to keep the democratization process on track. Economic reforms have to be taken one by one. You see it's not just speed that's important, it's sequencing as well. You've got to get the speed right you have to get the sequencing right.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To abolish fear correctly is to nurture law and order.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Fundamental violations of human rights always lead to people feeling less and less human.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Some believe that the only way to remove the authoritarian regime and replace it with a democratic one is through violent means. I would like to set the precedent of political change through political settlement, not through violence.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I don't think of myself as unbreakable. Perhaps I'm just rather flexible and adaptable.
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
One prisoner of conscience is one too many.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Humor is one of the best ingredients of survival.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is incorrect to say there have been no reforms at all in Burma there have of course been reforms, but we still need to do more for the people. To become a democratic society we have to continually be reforming.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We must all work together if we are all to live together in unity and harmony.
Aung San Suu Kyi
India and Burma have been close friends since the days we were struggling for independence. And I'm a great admirer of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, and all those leaders of India's independence movement. I would like to believe the aspirations and hopes we shared in the past will continue to bind us in the future.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Challenges mean opportunities as well.
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
You may not think about politics, but politics think about you.
Aung San Suu Kyi
What I have experienced is nothing compared to what political prisoners in prisons suffer.
Aung San Suu Kyi
