" "

The richest source of power to wage war lies in the masses of the people. It is mainly because of the unorganized state of the Chinese masses that Japan dares to bully us. When this defect is remedied, the Japanese aggressor, like a mad bull crashing into a ring of flames, will be surrounded by hundreds of millions of our people standing upright, the mere sound of their voices will strike terror into him, and he will be burned to death.

Additional quotes by Mao Zedong

为了同敌人作斗争,我们在一个长时间内形成了一个概念,就是说,在战略上我们要藐视一切敌人,在战术上我们要重视一切敌人。也就是说在整体上我们一定要藐视它,在一个一个的具体问题上我们一定要重视它。如果不是在整体上藐视敌人,我们就要犯机会主义的错误。马克思、恩格思只有两个人,那时他们就说全世界资本主义要被打倒。但是在具体问题上,在一个一个敌人的问题上,如果我们不重视它,我们就要犯冒险主义的错误。打仗只能一仗一仗地打,敌人只能一部分一部分地消灭。工厂只能一个一个地盖,农民犁地只能一块一块的犁,就是吃饭也是如此。我们在战略上藐视吃饭:这顿饭我们能 够吃下去。但是具体地吃,却是一口口地吃的,你不可能把一桌酒席一口吞下去。这叫做各个解决,军事书上叫做各个击破。

对民主人士,我们要让他们唱对台戏,放手让他们批评。如果我们不这样做,就有点象国民党了。国民党很怕批评,每次开参政会就诚惶诚恐。民主人士的批评也无非是两种:一种是错的,一种是不错的。不错的可以补足我们的短处;错的要反驳。至于梁漱溟、彭一湖、章乃器那一类人,他们有屁就让他们放,放出来有利,让大家闻一闻,是香的还是臭的,经过讨论,争取多数,使他们孤立起来。他们要闹,就让他们闹够。

日本现在用战争来压迫,要完全断绝中国革命的进路,所以不得不举行抗日战争,决心要扫除这个障碍。障碍既除,政治的目的达到,战争结束。障碍没有扫除得干净,战争仍须继续进行,以求贯彻。例如抗日的任务未完,有想求妥协的,必不成功;因为即使因某种缘故妥协了,但是战争仍要起来,广大人民必定不服,必要继续战争,贯彻战争的政治目的。因此可以说,政治是不流血的战争,战争是流血的政治。
