Mao never said this.
The first person to write this "quote" was Rob Boyce on 10-23-08.
You will find no other texts in English nor Chinese that contain it.
You will notice Rob provides no references whatsoever pertaining to where or when Mao supposedly said this.

The Writings of Mao Zedong, 1949-1976: September 1945 - December 1955, By Zedong Mao, Michael Y. M. Kau, John K. Leung
Isn't it interesting that this page no longer shows up? Scrub, scrub....
