We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.

More quotes by Mao Zedong
Napoleon was the best method. Dissolved all representative institutions and it decided who should rule the state with him.
Mao Zedong
I am alone with the masses.
Mao Zedong
Even though I believe we should promote Chinese medicine, I personally do not believe in it. I don't take Chinese medicine.
Mao Zedong
We have an army for fighting as well as an army for labour. For fighting, we have the Eighth Route and New Fourth Armies but even they do a dual job, warfare and production. With these two kinds of armies, and with a fighting army skilled in these two tasks and in mass work, we can overcome our difficulties and defeat Japanese imperialism.
Mao Zedong
Communism has nothing to do with love. Communism is an excellent hammer which we use to destroy our enemy.
Mao Zedong
Let's contemplate this, how many people would die if war breaks out. There are 2.7 billion people in the world. One-third could be lost or, a little more, it could be half... I say that, taking the extreme situation, half dies, half lives, but imperialism would be razed to the ground and the whole world would become socialist.
Mao Zedong
The Chinese people have stood up.
Mao Zedong
Take the ideas of the masses (scattered and unsystematic ideas) and concentrate them (through study turn them into concentrated and systematic ideas), then go to the masses and propagate and explain these ideas until the masses embrace them as their own
Mao Zedong
So long as a person who has made mistakes . . . honestly and sincerely wishes to be cured and to mend his ways, we should welcome him and cure his sickness so that he can become a good comrade. We can never succeed if we just let ourselves go and lash at him.
Mao Zedong
The most important thing is to be strong. With strength, one can conquer others, and to conquer others gives one virtue.
Mao Zedong
As for people who are politically backward, Communists should not slight or despise them, but should befriend them, unite with them, convince them and encourage them to go forward.
Mao Zedong
Communists should set an example in study at all times they should be pupils of the masses as well as their teachers.
Mao Zedong
Ours is a people's democratic dictatorship, led by the working class and based on the worker-peasant alliance.
Mao Zedong
After the enemies with guns have been wiped out, there will still be enemies without guns they are bound to struggle desperately against us, and we must never regard these enemies lightly. If we do nor now raise and understand the problem in this way, we shall commit the gravest mistakes.
Mao Zedong
Our country and all the other socialist countries want peace so do the peoples of all the countries of the world. The only ones who crave war and do not want peace are certain monopoly capitalist groups in a handful of imperialist countries that depend on aggression for their profits.
Mao Zedong
Anyone who sees only the bright side but not the difficulties cannot fight effectively for the accomplishment of the Party's tasks.
Mao Zedong
We Communists are like seeds and the people are like the soil. Wherever we go, we must unite with the people, take root and blossom among them.
Mao Zedong
Oxford shirts. Definitely more oxford shirts.
Mao Zedong
The great man, Genghis Khan, only knew how to shoot eagles with an arrow. The past is past. To see real heroes, look around you.
Mao Zedong
Imperialism is a paper tiger.
