Every Communist working in the mass movements should be a friend of the masses and not a boss over them, an indefatigable teacher and not a bureaucratic politician.

More quotes by Mao Zedong
The Chinese people have stood up.
Mao Zedong
No political party can possibly lead a great revolutionary movement to victory unless it possesses revolutionary theory and knowledge of history and has a profound grasp of the practical movement.
Mao Zedong
Don't wait untill problems pile up and cause a lot of trouble before trying to solve them. Leaders must march ahead the movement, not lag behind it.
Mao Zedong
The world is progressing, the future is bright and no one can change this general trend of history. We should carry on constant propaganda among the people on the facts of world progress and the bright future ahead so that they will build their confidence in victory.
Mao Zedong
Revolutionary war is an antitoxin which not only eliminates the enemy's poison but also purges us of our own filth.
Mao Zedong
The most effective method of propaganda directed at the enemy forces is to release captured soldiers and give the wounded medical treatment... Whenever soldiers of enemy forces are captured, we immediately conduct propaganda among them...This immediately knocks the bottom out of the enemy's slander that the Communist bandits kill everyone on sight.
Mao Zedong
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.
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
Ours is a people's democratic dictatorship, led by the working class and based on the worker-peasant alliance.
Mao Zedong
I have witnessed the tremendous energy of the masses. On this foundation it is possible to accomplish any task whatsoever.
Mao Zedong
Investigation may be likened to the long months of pregnancy, and solving a problem to the day of birth. To investigate a problem is, indeed, to solve it.
Mao Zedong
Our stand is that of the proletariat and of the masses. For members of the Communist Party, this means keeping to the stand of the Party, keeping to Party spirit and Party policy.
Mao Zedong
Many people think it impossible for guerrillas to exist for long in the enemy's rear. Such a belief reveals lack of comprehension of the relationship that should exist between the people and the troops. The former may be likened to water the latter to the fish who inhabit it. How may it be said that these two cannot exist together?
Mao Zedong
We must learn to do economic work from all who know how, no matter who they are. We must esteem them as teachers, learning from them respectfully and conscientiously. We must not pretend to know when we do not know.
Mao Zedong
Let the ancient serve the present, let the foreign serve the national by developing that which has been accomplished one creates something that is new.
Mao Zedong
...it is impossible for a genuine people's revolution in any country to win victory without various forms of help from the international revolutionary forces.
Mao Zedong
Be pupils of the masses as well as their teachers.
Mao Zedong
When the enemy advances, withdraw when he stops, harass when he tires, strike when he retreats, pursue.
Mao Zedong
. . . dogma is less useful than cow dung. One can make whatever one likes out of it, even revisionism. . . .
Mao Zedong
Passivity is fatal to us. Our goal is to make the enemy passive.
Mao Zedong
