Sun Yat-sen (Chinese - Leader)
November 12, 1866 - March 12, 1925
True is the saying: 'In order to make the world tranquil and happy, the nation must first be well governed!'
I am a Christian; God sent me to fight evil for my people. Jesus was a revolutionist; so am I.
It is my idea to make capitalism create socialism in China so that these two economic forces of human evolution will work side by side in future civilization.
Remember that a civilized nation cannot just have one party; if there were only one party, this would merely be a dictatorship. Politics could not advance.
We are the poorest and weakest state in the world, occupying the lowest position in international affairs; the rest of mankind is the carving knife and the serving dish, while we are the fish and the meat.
The key to success is action, and the essential in action is perseverance.
The Chinese people have only family and clan groups; there is no national spirit. Consequently, in spite of four hundred million people gathered together in one China, we are, in fact, but a sheet of loose sand.
When the nation can act freely, then China may be called strong. To make the nation free, we must each sacrifice his freedom.
We should recognize that nationalism does not mean discriminating against people of a different nationality. It simply means not allowing such people to seize our political power, for only when we Han are in control politically do we have a nation.
Our position is extremely perilous; if we do not earnestly promote nationalism and weld together our four hundred millions into a strong nation, we face a tragedy - the loss of our country and the destruction of our race. To ward off this danger, we must espouse nationalism and employ the national spirit to save the country.
