嚴重的問題是教育農民。農民的經濟是分散的,根據蘇聯的經驗,需要很長的時間和細心的工作,才能做到農業社會化。沒有農業社會化,就沒有全部的鞏固的社會主義。
——《論人民民主專政》(1949年6月30日),《毛澤東選集》第4卷第1482頁
The serious problem is the education of the peasantry.The peasant economy is scattered, and the socialization of agriculture, judging by the Soviet Union"s experience, will require a long time and painstaking work. Without socialization of agriculture,there can be no complete, consolidated socialism.
