I don't want to take one step forward and two steps backward.

There was a joke in Czechoslovakia: The Communist Party dance, it's one step forward, two steps backward, and everyone is still clapping.

The pattern of detaining, releasing and detaining Aung San Suu Kyi is symbolic of the one step forward, two steps back strategy the regime has perpetrated on the entire country.

We took two steps forward with the reforms in December, and one more step yesterday. But we still have 10 steps more to go.

The greater the step forward in knowledge, the greater is the one taken backward in search of wisdom.

This is a huge step forward.
