When you feel helpless, help someone.
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.

There are those who argue that the concept of human rights is not applicable to all cultures. We in the National League for Democracy believe that human rights are of universal relevance. But even those who do not believe in human rights must certainly agree that the rule of law is most important. Without the rule of law there can be no peace.

I think that freedom is sometimes a state of mind. Sometimes, mind you, but not always.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Image
Peace, development, and justice are all connected to each other. We cannot talk about economic development without talking about peace. How can we expect economic development in a battlefield?
Aung San Suu Kyi

At this age, I should be leading a quiet life.

To be forgotten, is to die a little.
