More quotes by Joseph Stalin
We have not yet built a communist society.It is not so easy to build such a society.
Joseph Stalin
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?
Joseph Stalin
To choose one's victims, to prepare one's plan minutely, to slake an implacable vengeance, and then to go to bed... There is nothing sweeter in the world.
Joseph Stalin
We think that a powerful and vigorous movement is impossible without differences - true conformity is possible only in the cemetery.
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.
Joseph Stalin
It is difficult for me to imagine what personal liberty the unemployed can have who go hungry and cannot find utilization of their labor.
Joseph Stalin
Artillery is the god of war.
Joseph Stalin
Our new Soviet constitution will, in my opinion, be the most democratic constitution of all those existing in the world.
Joseph Stalin
Mankind is divided into rich and poor, into property owners and exploited and to abstract oneself from this fundamental division and from the antagonism between poor and rich means abstracting oneself from fundamental facts.
Joseph Stalin
I fail to see what dangers surrounding states can see in the ideas of the Soviet people if these states are really firmly seated in their saddles.
Joseph Stalin
Remember how the first world war broke out. It broke out as a result of the desire to redivide the world.
Joseph Stalin
To assert that we desire to bring about revolution in other countries, by interfering with their lives, is to speak of something which does not exist and which we never preach.
Joseph Stalin
Capitalism in its imperialistic stage is a system which regards war as a legitimate method for solution of international disputes - a method which is legitimate in fact if not legally so.
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
We Marxists believe that revolution will occur in other countries, as well. But it will occur at a time when it will be considered possible or necessary by revolutionaries of those countries.
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 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
Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.
Joseph Stalin
It's not the people who vote that count. It's the people who count the votes.
Joseph Stalin
Of course, in order to build something new, one has to economize, accumulate means, temporarily limit one's requirements, borrow from others. If you want to build a new house, you save money temporarily and limit your requirements, otherwise you might not build your house.
Joseph Stalin
