Today’s quote is from Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, Burma’s democratically-elected Prime Minister, Nobel Peace laureate, and socially-engaged Buddhist icon who has spent fourteen of the last twenty years under house arrest.  (She celebrated her 65th birthday this weekend.) This is it:

A revolution which aims merely at changing official policies and institutions with a view to an improvement in material conditions has little chance of genuine success. Without a revolution of the spirit, the forces which produced the iniquities of the old order would continue to be operative, posing a constant threat to the process of reform and regeneration.
