Aung San Suu Kyi
  “It is not enough merely to call for freedom, democracy and human rights. There has to be a united determination to persevere in the struggle; to make sacrifices in the name of enduring truths; to resist the corrupting influences of desire, ill will, ignorance and fear.” - Aung San Suu Kyi from her 1991 book, Freedom From Fear

The History: Crackdown in Myanmar (Burma)






There is an amazing story of sacrifice here. Take the time to read about her family.
