More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
If suffering were an unavoidable part of our existence, we should try to alleviate it as far as possible in practical, earthly ways.
Aung San Suu Kyi
One person alone can't do anything as important as bringing genuine democracy to a country.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We want to empower our people we want to strengthen them we want to provide them with the kind of qualifications that will enable them to build up their own country themselves.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The root of a nation's misfortunes has to be sought in the moral failings of the government.
Aung San Suu Kyi

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
Human rights and rule of law are inseparably connected.
Aung San Suu Kyi
When I was under house arrest, it was the BBC that spoke to me - I listened.
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
It is not enough to sit and hope. You have to work in order to realize your hopes.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There can be no civil peace without the rule of law.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I felt that it was my duty not to senselessly waste my time. And since I didn't want to waste my time, I tried to accomplish as much as possible.
Aung San Suu Kyi
All military regimes use security as the reason why they should remain in power. It's nothing original.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We have to choose between dialogue and utter devastation.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To be kind is to respond with sensitivity and human warmth to the hopes and needs of others. Even the briefest touch of kindness can lighten a heavy heart. Kindness can change the lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Early childhood development has proved to be very beneficial and very cost-effective in societies where this is been tried. So let's not confine ourselves to primary education. Let's think of early childhood development and education as a whole.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I always say that one has no right to hope without endeavor.
Aung San Suu Kyi
We have been making constant efforts, all the time, to start dialogue with the SLORC, but you know it takes two. We don't want a monologue. We would like a substantive political dialogue among the SLORC, political leaders including myself, and leaders of ethnic groups-exactly as stipulated in the U.N. General Assembly resolution on Burma.
