He who wished to lead a movement must conduct a fight on two fronts--against those who lag behind and those who rush ahead.

Have not fascism in Italy and National Socialism in Germany claimed that they have attained similar results [as in U.S.S.R.]? Have not both been achieved at the price of privation and personal liberty sacrificed for the good of the state?
