The press must grow day in and day out - it is our Party's sharpest and most powerful weapon.
Joseph Stalin
Image
This creature softened my heart of stone. She died and with her died my last warm feelings for humanity.
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.

I trust no one, not even myself.

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.

In war I would deal with the Devil and his grandmother
Joseph Stalin

When one man dies it is a tragedy, when thousands die it's statistics.
Joseph Stalin
Image
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
Image
Remember how the first world war broke out. It broke out as a result of the desire to redivide the world.
Joseph Stalin
Image
The reason why there is now no communist government in Paris is because in the circumstances of 1945 the Soviet army was not able to reach French soil.
Joseph Stalin
Image
We desire to give the Soviet people absolute liberty of voting for those they desire to elect, those whom they trust to ensure their interests.
Joseph Stalin
Image
We [U.S.S.R. and U.S.A.] can exist peacefully together if we don't indulge in too much mutual fault-finding in all kinds of trifles.
Joseph Stalin
Image
Yes, the electoral struggle [in U.S.S.R.] will be animated. It will proceed around numerous very sharp questions, namely, practical questions having first-rate significance for the people.
Joseph Stalin
Image
The people who cast the votes decide nothing the people who count the votes decide everything.
