To have compromise you must first have dialog. That is the true path of democracy.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Humor is one of the best ingredients of survival.
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
The judiciary in Burma is not independent. It's widely known, everybody knows that.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The judiciary must be strengthened and released from political interference.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To abolish fear correctly is to nurture law and order.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is part of the unceasing human endeavor to prove that the spirit of man can transcend the flaws of his own nature.
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
There is no hope without endeavor.
Aung San Suu Kyi
A revolution simply means great change, significant change, and that's how I'm defining it - great change for the better, brought about through non-violent means.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The peace of our world is indivisible. As long as negative forces are getting the better of positive forces anywhere, we are all at risk.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Jobless people will have no self-confidence. And they feel they are worthless because when you don't have a job you have to rely on someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
One prisoner of conscience is one too many.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We will surely get to our destination if we join hands.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is not a sacrifice, it's a choice. If you choose to do something, then you shouldn't say it's a sacrifice, because nobody forced you to do it
Aung San Suu Kyi
Some of the most relaxing weekends I have ever enjoyed were those I spent quietly with a sense of all work to date completed, and an absorbing mystery.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I'm not the only one working for democracy in Burma - there are so many people who have worked for it because they believe that this is the only way we can maintain the dignity of our people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is man's vision of a world fit for rational, civilized humanity which leads him to dare and to suffer to build societies free from want and fear. Concepts such as truth, justice and compassion cannot be dismissed as trite when these are often the only bulwarks which stand against ruthless power.
Aung San Suu Kyi
One wants to be together with one's family. That's what families are about.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I do not hold to non-violence for moral reasons, but for political and practical reasons.
Aung San Suu Kyi
