" "So many green streams and blue hills, but to what avail ?
This tiny creature left even Hua To powerless!
Hundreds of villages choked with weeds, men wasted away;
Thousands of homes deserted, ghosts chanted mournfully.
Motionless, by earth I travel eighty thousand li a day,
Surveying the sky I see a myriad Milky Ways from afar.
Should the Cowherd ask tidings of the God of Plague,
Say the same griefs flow down the stream of time.

Additional quotes by Mao Zedong
常常听到一些同志在不能勇敢接受工作任务时说出来的一句话:没有把握。为什么没有把握呢?因为他对于这项工作的内容和环境没有规律性的了解,或者他从来就没有接触过这类工作,或者接触得不多,因而无从谈到这类工作的规律性。及至把工作的情况和环境给以详细分析之后,他就觉得比较地有了把握,愿意去做这项工作。如果这个人在这项工作中经过了一个时期,他有了这项工作的经验了,而他又是一个肯虚心体察情况的人,不是一个主观地、片面地、表面地看问题的人,他就能够自己做出应该怎样进行工作的结论,他的工作勇气也就可以大大地提高了。只有那些主观地、片面地和表面地看问题的人,跑到一个地方,不问环境的情况,不看事情的全体(事情的历史和全部现状),也不触到事情的本质(事情的性质及此一事情和其他事情的内部联系),就自以为是地发号施令起来,这样的人是没有不跌交子的。
The unification of our country, the unity of our people and the unity of our various nationalities — these are the basic guarantees for the sure triumph of our cause. However, this does not mean that contradictions no longer exist in our society. To imagine that none exist is a naive idea which is at variance with objective reality. We are confronted with two types of social contradictions — those between ourselves and the enemy and those among the people. The two are totally different in nature.
