More quotes by Mao Zedong
When there is not enough to eat, people starve to death. It is better to let half of the people die so that the other half can eat their fill.
Mao Zedong
. . . dogma is less useful than cow dung. One can make whatever one likes out of it, even revisionism. . . .
Mao Zedong
The world is yours, as well as ours, but in the last analysis, it is yours. Young people, full of vigour and vitality, are in the bloom of life, like the sun at eight or nine in the morning. Our hope is placed on you...The world belongs to you. China's future belongs to you.
Mao Zedong
An army of the people is invincible!
Mao Zedong
People of the world, unite and defeat the U.S. aggressors and all their running dogs!
Mao Zedong
Let a hundred flowers bloom.
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
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
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.
Mao Zedong
Long distance running is particularly good training in perseverance.
Mao Zedong
Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy.
Mao Zedong
As far as world war goes, there are really only two possibilities: either war provokes revolution, or revolution averts war.
Mao Zedong
Complacency is the enemy of study. We cannot really learn anything until we rid ourselves of complacency.
Mao Zedong
The government burns down whole cities while the people are forbidden to light lamps.
Mao Zedong
Who are our enemies? Who are our friends? This is a question of the first importance for the revolution.
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
All the reputedly powerful reactionaries are merely paper tigers. The reason is that they are divorced from the people. Look! Was not Hitler a paper tiger? Was Hitler not overthrown? U.S. imperialism has not yet been overthrown and it has the atomic bomb. I believe it also will be overthrown. It, too, is a paper tiger.
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
The enemy will not perish of himself. Neither will the Chinese reactionaries nor the aggressive forces of U.S. imperialism in China step down from the stage of history of their own accord.
Mao Zedong
If we did ten things, nine were bad and got disclosed by the newspapers, we will be over. Then I will go, to the countryside, lead the peasant and revolt. If the Liberation Army do not follow me, I will get the Red Army.
Mao Zedong
