modest and prudent, guard against arrogance and rashness, and work hard. We

must not be intimidated by any risks or led astray by any distractions, and we
must be absolutely certain that we make no catastrophic mistakes on fundamental

underlying governance by a communist party, the building of socialism, and the
development of human society.

our consciousness of the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture
