Is it possible, then, to doubt that we can and must gain victory over the German invaders? The enemy is not as strong as some terror-stricken pseudo-intellectuals picture him. The devil is not as terrible as he is painted.

More quotes by Joseph Stalin
Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.
Joseph Stalin
We built this [socialistic] society not for the curbing of personal liberty, but in order that human personalities should really feel free.
Joseph Stalin
This creature softened my heart of stone. She died and with her died my last warm feelings for humanity.
Joseph Stalin
As soon as there are no more classes, as soon as boundaries between classes are effaced, as soon as only a few but non-fundamental differences between various strata of the socialist society remain - there can no longer be nourishing ground for the formation of parties struggling among themselves.
Joseph Stalin
There are capitalist states which consider themselves cheated, during previous redivisions of spheres of influence, territories, sources of raw materials, markets, etc., and which would again desire to redivide them to their own advantage.
Joseph Stalin
Quanity has it's own quality.
Joseph Stalin
The press must grow day in and day out - it is our Party's sharpest and most powerful weapon.
Joseph Stalin
Political power does not rest with those who cast votes political power rests with those who count votes.
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
Our society consists exclusively of free working people of cities and villages, workers, peasants, intelligentsia. Each of these strata may have its special interests and express them in numerous existing organizations.
Joseph Stalin
In war I would deal with the Devil and his grandmother
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
American Communists have the opportunity to preach freely their ideas. It would be absolutely wrong to hold the Soviet government responsible for activities of the American Communists.
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
To slacken the tempo...would mean falling behind. And those who fall behind get beaten.
Joseph Stalin
It's not the people who vote that count. It's the people who count the votes.
Joseph Stalin
The art of leadership is a serious matter. One must not lag behind a movement, because to do so is to become isolated from the masses. But one must not rush ahead, for to rush ahead is to lose contact with the masses. He who wished to lead a movement must conduct a fight on two fronts--against those who lag behind and those who rush ahead.
Joseph Stalin
There is no nation in the whole world desiring war.
Joseph Stalin
It is difficult to say which is more menacing. But both of [points of war danger -Japan and Germany] exist and both are smoldering. In comparison with these two principal focal points of the war danger, the Italo-Ethiopian war represents an episode.
Joseph Stalin
Having consolidated its power, and taking the lead of the peasantry, the proletariat of the victorious country can and must build a socialist society.
