More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
Fires of suffering and strife are raging around the world.
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
Fearlessness may be a gift, but perhaps most precious is courage from cultivating the habit of refusing to let fear dictate one's actions.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There is nothing to compare with the courage of ordinary people whose names are unknown and whose sacrifices pass unnoticed. The courage that dares without recognition, without the protection of media attention, is a courage that humbles and inspires and reaffirms our faith in humanity.
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 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
The judiciary must be strengthened and released from political interference.
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 essential to institute a legal framework that would ensure justice and improve the quality of life in Burma immediately, because the greatest suffering among the people at the moment is caused by lack of justice and lack of the rule of law.
Aung San Suu Kyi
A lot of the roads, bridges, railways, and such are built through the use of forced labor, and that is causing the people great suffering. What we put into this in the form of human suffering is not worth what comes out of it.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Even one voice can be heard loudly all over the world in this day and age.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Young people drift away from society because, in many cases, they have no hope or goals. So, hope will have to be given to the young.
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
If you're feeling helpless, help someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
When the Nobel Committee chose to honor me, the road I had chosen of my own free will became a less lonely path to follow.
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
The quintessential revolution is that of spirit. Without this, the forces which produce the inequalities of the old order will continue to operate.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I was a bit of a coward when I was small. I was terribly frightened of the dark.
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
We have to choose between dialogue and utter devastation.
Aung San Suu Kyi
