More quotes by Mao Zedong
It's sadly predictable that the only way you can come up with a way to celebrate the liberation you feel at leaving the old system behind is by coming up with a system of liberation, as if such a thing could exist - but that's what we can expect from those who have never known anything other than systems and systematizing, I guess.
Mao Zedong

Mao Zedong
Once all struggles are grasped, miracles are possible.
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

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

Mao Zedong
The people, and the people alone, are the motive force in the making of world history.
Mao Zedong
The seizure of power by armed force, the settlement of the issue by war, is the central task and the highest form of revolution. This Marxist-Leninist principle of revolution holds well universally, for China and for all other countries.
Mao Zedong
...the evil system of colonialism and imperialism arose and throve with the enslavement of Negroes and the trade in Negroes, and it will surely come to its end with the complete emancipation of the Black people.
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
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.
