Quotes from Aung San Suu Kyi

“In societies where men are truly confident of their own worth, women are not merely tolerated but valued."


“If you're feeling helpless, help someone. ” 


“It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.” 


“The only real prison is fear, and the only real freedom is freedom from fear” 


“You should never let your fears prevent you from doing what you know is right.” 


“Fear is a habit; I am not afraid.” 


“We will surely get to our destination if we join hands.” 


“To view the opposition as dangerous is to misunderstand the basic concepts of democracy. To oppress the opposition is to assault the very foundation of democracy.” 


“Government leaders are amazing. So often it seems they are the last to know what the people want.” 


“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.”
