More quotes by Mao Zedong
There is great disorder in the heavens, and the situation is excellent.
Mao Zedong
Not just in China, but everywhere in the world without exception, one either leans to the side of imperialism or the side of socialism. Neutrality is mere camouflage a third road does not exist.
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
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
When we look at thing, we must examine its essence and treat its appearance merely as an usher at the threshold, we must, once we cross the threshold, grasp the essence of the thing.
Mao Zedong
Who are our enemies? Who are our friends? This is a question of the first importance for the revolution.
Mao Zedong
The government burns down whole cities while the people are forbidden to light lamps.
Mao Zedong
. . . dogma is less useful than cow dung. One can make whatever one likes out of it, even revisionism. . . .
Mao Zedong
All reactionaries are paper tigers.
Mao Zedong
The cardinal responsibility of leadership is to identify the dominant contradiction at each point of the historical process and to work out a central line to resolve it.
Mao Zedong
Napoleon was the best method. Dissolved all representative institutions and it decided who should rule the state with him.
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
In a suitable temperature, an egg becomes a chicken, and there are no chickens born of stones.
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
There is in fact no such thing as art for art's sake, art that stands above classes, art that is detached from or independent of politics. Proletarian literature and art are part of the whole proletarian revolutionary cause.
Mao Zedong
Communism has nothing to do with love. Communism is an excellent hammer which we use to destroy our enemy.
Mao Zedong
Our national defense will be consolidated and no imperialist will be allowed to invade our territory again. Our People's armed forces must be maintained and developed with the brave and steeled People's Liberation Army as their foundation. We will have not only a powerful army but also a powerful air force and a powerful navy.
Mao Zedong
Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.
Mao Zedong
Today the whole world depends on communism for its salvation, and China is no exception.
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
