Deng Xiaoping

We have to be careful not to make a show of being rich.

The most important thing is to be good at learning.

We are still in the primary stage of socialism.

No matter how good a thing is, if it cannot be implemented, it is useless.

We must allow some people and some areas to get rich first, and then help others to get rich too.

It is necessary to have a correct understanding of the relationship between planning and market.

We must keep a clear head. We must not be carried away by success.

Reform and opening up is a great revolution.

The ultimate goal is common prosperity.

We must grasp the opportunity and strive for development.

It is better to be criticized than to be unknown.

We should open up to the outside world, not close ourselves off.

The key is to develop the economy.

We must not be afraid of making mistakes.

The greatest danger is ossification.

We must oppose both 'left' and 'right' deviations.

We must accelerate the pace of reform and opening up.

It is necessary to build a strong socialist spiritual civilization.

We should not fear capitalism.

Poverty is not socialism. Socialism means eliminating poverty.
