Like any developing country, it has an inequality of wealth. In the Chinese case, it is particularly [pronounced] by the fact that they decided they couldn't make the whole country move forward simultaneously, so they've started region by region. So the interior regions are much less well off than the coastal regions. And this is certainly a huge challenge, because it produces a flow of populations from the poorer regions to the richer regions.

The conventional army loses if it does not win. The guerrilla wins if he does not lose.

A leader does not deserve the name unless he is willing occasionally to stand alone.

An expert is someone who articulates the needs of those in power.

A leader who confines his role to his people's experience dooms himself to stagnation; a leader who outstrips his people's experience runs the risk of not being understood.

I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its own people.

I have always expressed respect for those people who make public declarations.
