“五一”节对阿尔巴尼亚贵宾的谈话
（一九六七年五月一日）
主席对阿尔巴尼亚贵宾说：“我们还是有困难的。中国是有希望的，世界是有希望的。当前主要任务就是大批判，大斗争，尽快实现三结合。（有人谈到像“九评”那样批判《修养》。）主席说，不要写长文章，两千字就够了，不要超过三千。
In a meeting with Albanian military officials, Mao explains his reasons for starting the Cultural Revolution. He emphasizes that the purpose is to solve current problems in the world and dig out the roots of revisionism [within the Chinese Communist Party].
