This excerpt is adapted from a speech given by Mao Zedong in 1945.

Our aim... is to build up the confidence of the whole communist party and the entire people in the certain triumph of the revolution... We must... raise the political consciousness of the entire people so that they may willingly and gladly fight together with us for victory. We should fire the whole people with the conviction that China belongs not to the reactionaries but to the Chinese people... We firmly believe that, led by the Chinese Communist Party... the Chinese people will achieve complete victory.
