I don't want Burma to be a basket case forever.

It is not power that corrupts but fear.

My top priority is for people to understand that they have the power to change things themselves.

The judiciary in Burma is not independent. It's widely known, everybody knows that.

The best way to help Burma is to empower the people of Burma, to help us have enough self-confidence to obtain what we want for ourselves.

As long as there is no law in Burma, any individual here can be arrested at any time.
