“Collective unity is not the result of the brotherly love of the faithful for each other. The loyalty of the true believer is to the whole the church, party, nation and not to his fellow true believer.

“Liberalism is extremely harmful in a revolutionary collective. It is a corrosive which eats away unity, undermines cohesion, causes apathy and creates dissension. It robs the revolutionary ranks of compact organization and strict discipline, prevents policies from being carried through and alienates the Party organizations from the masses which the Party leads. It is an extremely bad tendency.” CausesPartyPolicyDisciplineMassOrganizationUnityTendenciesRevolutionaryLiberalismCollectivesApathyStrictCompactCohesionDissension Book:Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung (The Little Red Book) & Other Works Source: Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung (The Little Red Book) & Other Works
“The principle of collective leadership is elementary for a proletarian party and for a party of the Lenin type. Nevertheless, we must emphasize this old truth, because for about 20 years we have had practically no collective leadership; there flourished the cult of the individual which was condemned first by Marx and then by Lenin. And this, of course, could not but reflect negatively on the position of the party and its work.” YearsFirstsCoursesIndividualPartyPrinciplesPositionTypeTruth IsCollectivesNeverthelessCult Author:Anastas Mikoyan
