Fun fact: Many of his quotes were used nowadays not to endorse, but to criticize the current status and policies of China. The selected works of Mao had 5 volumes and vo.5, tho not banned, is not nearly as popular as the first 4 in China, mainly because it addressed his criticisms and warnings toward revisionism that he believed would happen to China in the future(which it did after he died). It is a must read if you wish to learn more about the Communist ideology, whether or not you are a Marxist.

"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." "All reactionaries are paper tigers." "A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another. "

The most misunderstood statement is Mao’s “political power grows out the barrel of a gun”. He wasn’t talking about weapons or gun control, rather the gun refers to the Chinese army. Mao strongly disagreed with other Communists that the army should take orders from the government, rather he wanted them to be directly subordinate to the Communist Party. Otherwise he feared they would play kingmaker.
