Aung San Suu Kyi

The Rohingya are not a recognized ethnic group in Myanmar.

I don’t think there is ethnic cleansing going on.

We have to be fair to all sides.

There are many, many, many Buddhists who have also left the country for various reasons.

We are not afraid of international scrutiny.

The situation in Rakhine is complicated.

We condemn all human rights violations.

We have to be very careful in our use of terms.

There is a lot of hostility in the world today.

We are a young and fragile democracy.

I am not a politician. I am a public servant.

The only real prison is fear.

I would rather be a prisoner of my convictions than a slave to my fears.

I am not afraid. I am just very tired.

Please use your liberty to promote ours.

I'm not a very good cook. My husband did most of the cooking.

I don't have any regrets. I believe in destiny.

I'm not a saint. I'm just a human being.

It is not power that corrupts but fear.

I don't believe in violence. I believe in dialogue.
