Quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
It is not power that corrupts but fear.
Fearlessness may be a gift but perhaps the more precious thing
is the courage acquired through endeavor, courage that comes from
cultivating the habit of refusing to let fear dictate one's actions,
courage that could be described as 'grace under pressure'- grace
which is renewed repeatedly in the face of harsh, unremitting pressure.
My attitude to peace is rather based on the Burmese definition
of peace - it really means removing all the negative factors that
destroy peace in this world. So peace does not mean just putting an end
to violence or to war, but to all other factors that threaten peace,
such as discrimination, such as inequality, poverty.
Every kindness I received, small or big, convinced me
that there could never be enough of it in the world.
Kindness, can change the lives of people.
You should never let your fears prevent you from
doing what you know is right.
Every thought, every word, and every action that adds
to the positive and the wholesome is a contribution to peace.
Each and every one of us is capable of making such a contribution.
We will surely get to our destination if we join hands.
