More quotes by Nikita Khrushchev
You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism outright, but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you'll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won't have to fight you. We'll so weaken your economy until you'll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.
Nikita Khrushchev
When you are skinning your customers, you should leave some skin on to heal, so that you can skin them again.
Nikita Khrushchev
The two most powerful nations of the world had been squared off against each other, each with its finger on the button. You'd have thought that war was inevitable. But both sides showed that if the desire to avoid war is strong enough, even the most pressing dispute can be solved by compromise. And a compromise over Cuba was indeed found.
Nikita Khrushchev
The United States will eventually fly the Communist red flag…The American people will hoist it themselves.
Nikita Khrushchev

I worked at a factory owned by Germans, at coal pits owned by Frenchmen, and at a chemical plant owned by Belgians. There I discovered something about capitalists.

Nikita Khrushchev
But life is a great school. It thrashes and bangs and teaches you.
Nikita Khrushchev
In the future, if nuclear weapons are unleashed there will be no front and no rear.
Nikita Khrushchev
I happened to read recently a remark by the American nuclear physicist W. Davidson, who noted that the explosion of one hydrogen bomb releases a greater amount of energy than all the explosions set off by all countries in all wars known in the entire history of mankind. And he, apparently, is right.
Nikita Khrushchev
I once said, 'We will bury you,' and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you.
Nikita Khrushchev
Do you think when two representatives holding diametrically opposing views get together and shake hands, the contradictions between our systems will simply melt away? What kind of a daydream is that?
Nikita Khrushchev
Just imagine: I, a Premier, a Soviet representative, when I came here to this city, I was given a plan - a program of what I was to be shown and whom I was to meet here. But just now, I was told that I could not go to Disneyland. I asked, 'Why not?' What is it, do you have rocket-launching pads there? I do not know
Nikita Khrushchev
What the scientists have in their briefcases is terrifying.
Nikita Khrushchev
I don't understand the music but I certainly understand the girl singer!
Nikita Khrushchev
The one who loses his head no longer cares about his hair.
Nikita Khrushchev
The living will envy the dead.
Nikita Khrushchev
President Roosevelt proved that a President could serve for life. Truman proved that anyone could be elected. Eisenhower proved that your country can be run without a President.
