Quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi: The complete collection of over 100 quotes

By Lilith Regan

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. Human beings the world over need freedom and security that they may be able to realize their full potential. The democracy process provides for political and social change without violence. The value systems of those with access to power and of those far removed from such access cannot be the same. The viewpoint of the privileged is unlike that of the underprivileged. The history of the world shows that peoples and societies do not have to pass through a fixed series of stages in the course of development. It is often in the name of cultural integrity as well as social stability and national security that democratic reforms based on human rights are resisted by authoritarian governments. Peace as a goal is an ideal which will not be contested by any government or nation, not even the most belligerent.
