Mao Tse-tung

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

War can only be abolished by war, and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun.

The revolution is not a tea party.

Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed.

We shall support whatever the enemy opposes and oppose whatever the enemy supports.

In waking a tiger, use a long stick.

Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed.

- Mao Tse-tung
