Mao Zedong Quote

In China the struggle to consolidate the socialist system, the struggle to decide whether socialism or capitalism will prevail, will still take a long historical period. However, we should all realize that the new system of socialism will unquestionably be consolidated. We can assuredly build a socialist state with modern industry, modern agriculture, and modern science and culture.

Speech at the Chinese Communist Party's National Conference on Propaganda Work: March 12, 1957 (ed. 1967)
