More quotes by 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
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
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
That's not how politics works - sometimes things move in a rather imperceptible way. There are no fireworks, and then comes a time when change comes unexpectedly. Sometimes change comes with a lot of fireworks, but not always.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Freedom must be demanded and defended, by those who have been denied it and by those who are already free.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Kindness can change the lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi

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
The judiciary in Burma is not independent. It's widely known, everybody knows that.
Aung San Suu Kyi
A most insidious form of fear is that which masquerades as common sense or even wisdom, condemning as foolish, reckless, insignificant or futile the small, daily acts of courage which help to preserve man's self-respect and inherent human dignity.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Saints, it has been said, are the sinners who go on trying. So free men and women are the oppressed who go on trying and who in the process make themselves fit to bear the responsibilities and uphold the disciplines which will maintain a free society.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To abolish fear correctly is to nurture law and order.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I think that freedom is sometimes a state of mind. Sometimes, mind you, but not always.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Humor is one of the best ingredients of survival.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Every government must consider the security of the country. That is just part of the responsibilities of any government. But true security can only come out of unity within a country where there are so many ethnic nationalities.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I think more women should be involved in politics for the good of the human race.
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
One prisoner of conscience is one too many.
Aung San Suu Kyi
