More quotes by Mao Zedong
It is necessary to master Marxist theory and apply it, master it for the sole purpose of applying it. If you can apply the Marxist-Leninist viewpoint in elucidating one or two practical problems, you should be commended and credited with some achievement.
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
Let a hundred flowers bloom.
Mao Zedong
Where do correct ideas come from? Do they drop from the skies? No. They come from social practice, and from it alone they come from three kinds of social practice, the struggle for production, the class struggle and scientific experiment.
Mao Zedong
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.
Mao Zedong
Many who have read Marxist books have become renegades from the revolution, whereas illiterate workers often grasp Marxism very well.
Mao Zedong
When the enemy advances, withdraw when he stops, harass when he tires, strike when he retreats, pursue.
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
As far as world war goes, there are really only two possibilities: either war provokes revolution, or revolution averts war.
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
Deaths have benefits. They can fertilise the ground.
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
We must have faith, first, that the peasant masses are ready to advance step by step along the road of socialism under the leadership of the Party, and second, that the Party is capable of leading the peasants along this road. These two points are the essence of the matter, the main current.
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
Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy.
Mao Zedong
The guerrilla must move amongst the people as a fish swims in the sea.
Mao Zedong
Man must conquer nature.
Mao Zedong
There is great disorder in the heavens, and the situation is excellent.
Mao Zedong
Complacency is the enemy of study. We cannot really learn anything until we rid ourselves of complacency.
Mao Zedong
All our officers and fighters must always bear in mind that we are the great People's Liberation Army, we are the troops led by the great Communist Party of China. Provided we constantly observe the directives of the Party, we are sure to win.
Mao Zedong
