Humor is one of the best ingredients of survival.

Human beings the world over need freedom and security that they may be able to realize their full potential.

The people of my country want the two freedoms that spell security: freedom from want and freedom from fear.

The [Burmese] government appears to be more interested in stamping out political activity than drug addiction. Very few university students on the campus could get away with engaging in political activities, but they seem to be able to get away with taking drugs. We have heard that it is very easy to obtain drugs on the university campuses.

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

The true measure of the justice of a system is the amount of protection it guarantees to the weakest.
