–Mao Zedong, September 9, 1961 Amid dusk’s haze stands the strong pine,Through wild cloud surges, calm it doth shine.A cave of immortals by nature’s design –All grandest sights on perilous peak align.
– Mao Zedong · 1927 Our army is the Workers’ and Peasants’ Revolutionary Army,Our banner bears the sickle and axe.We shall not linger around Kuanglu,But march straight toward the land of Xiao and Xiang.
