More quotes by Joseph Stalin
The term state socialism is not precise. Under this term many understand an order under which a certain part of the wealth, sometimes a quite considerable part, passes into state ownership or under its control while in the great majority of cases the ownership of plants, factories, and land, remains in private hands.
Joseph Stalin
In a socialist society, everybody is obliged to work even though he is remunerated for his labor and not yet according to his needs, but according to the quantity and quality of the labor expended.
Joseph Stalin
I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how but what is extraordinarily important is this - who will count the votes, and how.
Joseph Stalin
The leaders come and go, but the people remain. Only the people are immortal.
Joseph Stalin
Real liberty exists only there where exploitation has been annihilated, where no oppression of some peoples by others exists, where there is no unemployment and pauperism, where a person does not tremble because tomorrow he may lose his job, home and bread.
Joseph Stalin
In the U.S.S.R. anti-semitism is punishable with the utmost severity of the law as a phenomenon deeply hostile to the Soviet system. Under U.S.S.R. law active anti-semites are liable to the death penalty.
Joseph Stalin
He who votes does not have power. He who counts the votes has power.
Joseph Stalin

Joseph Stalin
This creature softened my heart of stone. She died and with her died my last warm feelings for humanity.
Joseph Stalin

Joseph Stalin
Exported revolution is nonsense.
Joseph Stalin
The Soviet system will not evolve into American democracy or vice-versa.
Joseph Stalin
Voters decide nothing. Vote counters decide everything!
Joseph Stalin
In the Soviet army it takes more courage to retreat than advance.
Joseph Stalin
Quantity has a quality all its own.
Joseph Stalin
This war is not an ordinary war. It is the war of the entire Russian people. Not only to eliminate the danger hanging over our heads, but to aid all people groaning under the yoke of Fascism
Joseph Stalin
Admittedly communism has not been achieved in Russia. State socialism has been built.
Joseph Stalin
Universal, equal, direct and secret elections in the U.S.S.R. will be a whip in the hands of the population against poorly functioning organs of government.
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
Education is a weapon the effect of which is determined by the hands which wield it, by who is to be struck down.
Joseph Stalin
