In 1732 I first published my Almanac under the name of Richard Saunders; it was continued by me about twenty-five years, and commonly called Poor Richard's Almanac. I endeavoured to make it both entertaining and useful, and it accordingly came to be in such demand, that I reaped considerable profit from it, vending annually near ten thousand. And observing that it was generally read, (scarce any neigbbourbood in the province being without it,) I considered it as a proper vehicle for conveying instruction among the common people, who bought Scarcely any other books. I therefore filled all the little spaces, that occurred between the remarkable days in the Calendar, with proverbial sentences, chiefly such as inculcated industry and frugality, as the means of procuring wealth, and thereby securing virtue; it being more difficult for a man in want to act always honestly, as (to use here one of those proverbs) "It is hard for an empty sack to stand upright."

Deng Xiaoping Was Significantly Different From Mao Zedong As The Leader Of The Chinese Communist Party Because He
IrinaVladis [17]

The major difference between Deng Xiaoping and Mao Zedong can be simply put that Deng Xiaoping was much more practical and realistic.

Deng Xiaoping was not extreme as Mao Zedong, and unlike Mao who closed the country to the world and implemented non-realistic terrible economic policies, Deng reformed the economy of China and opened it up to the world.

Deng started with the Four Modernizations, which included the agriculture, industry, technology, and science development. He opened up the country gradually to the world, and gave his best to modernize the country, catch the pace of the developed countries, and make China a strong nation. All of his policies were perfected to detail, they were realistic, practical, and very efficient, resulting in great prosperity and development in China very rapidly, making China the biggest producer of goods in the world, as well as one of the strongest nations in every aspect in the world. No wonder that he is often referred to as the ''Greatest economist in the human history''.
