Complacency is the enemy of study. We cannot really learn anything until we rid ourselves of complacency.
Mao ZedongAn army without culture is a dull-witted army, and a dull-witted army cannot defeat the enemy.
Mao ZedongRevolutionary war is an antitoxin that not only eliminates the enemy's poison but also purges us of our own filth. Every just, revolutionary war is endowed with tremendous power and can transform many things or clear the way for their transformation. The Sino-Japanese war will transform both China and Japan; provided China perseveres in the War of Resistance and in the united front, the old Japan will surely be transformed into a new Japan and the old China into a new China, and people and everything else in both China and Japan will be transformed during and after the war.
