Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung is a book of statements from speeches and writings by Mao Tse-tung (now romanized as Mao Zedong), the former Chairman of the Communist Party of China, published from 1964 to about 1976 and widely distributed during China’s Cultural Revolution. Billions were produced, the most popular versions being in bright red covers in small sizes that could be easily carried, becoming commonly known internationally as The Little Red Book. It consists of 427 quotations, organized thematically into 33 chapters. It is also called “Thoughts of Chairman Mao” by many Chinese people.
The quotations range in length from a sentence to a few short paragraphs and borrow heavily from a group of about two dozen documents in the four volumes of Mao’s Selected Works. Usually, the quotations are arranged logically, to deal with one to three themes in the development of a chapter.
