More quotes by Joseph Stalin
This war is not as in the past whoever occupies a territory also imposes on it his own social system. Everyone imposes his own system as far as his army can reach. It cannot be otherwise. If now there is not a communist government in Paris, this is only because Russia has no an army which can reach Paris in 1945.
Joseph Stalin

It is not heroes that make history, but history that makes heroes.
Joseph Stalin
There are on occasions, as we know, when resources are abundant, but they are expended so incompetently that the advantage is nullified.
Joseph Stalin
The Red Army and Navy and the whole Soviet people must fight for every inch of Soviet soil, fight to the last drop of blood for our towns and villages...onward, to victory!
Joseph Stalin
In my opinion, there are two focal points of the war danger. The first focal point is the Far East zone of Japan. The second focal point in the zone is Germany.
Joseph Stalin
A man's eyes should be torn out if he can only see the past
Joseph Stalin
We think that a powerful and vigorous movement is impossible without differences - true conformity is possible only in the cemetery.
Joseph Stalin
He who votes does not have power. He who counts the votes has power.
Joseph Stalin
There are no fortresses that Bolsheviks cannot storm.
Joseph Stalin
Why will our elections be equal? Because neither differences in regard to property (differences partly existing) nor differences of race and nationality will cause any privileges or disadvantages. Women will enjoy the right to elect and be elected equally with men. Our elections will be really equal.
