More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi

Aung San Suu Kyi
When you decide to follow a certain path, you should follow it to the end and not be diverted from it for personal reasons.
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
Assuming the chairmanship of ASEAN isn't going to do anything about improving the lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
If you're feeling helpless, help someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi

Aung San Suu Kyi
What does Burma have to give the United States? We can give you the opportunity to engage with people who are ready and willing to change a society.
Aung San Suu Kyi
