More quotes by Rosa Luxemburg
Before a revolution happens, it is perceived as impossible after it happens, it is seen as having been inevitable.
Rosa Luxemburg
Self-criticism, cruel, unsparing criticism that goes to the very root of the evil, is life and breath for the proletarian movement.
Rosa Luxemburg
Those who don't move don't notice their chains.
Rosa Luxemburg
Tomorrow the revolution will 'rise up again, clashing its weapons,' and to your horror it will proclaim with trumpets blazing: I was, I am, I shall be!
Rosa Luxemburg
The masses are in reality their own leaders, dialectically creating their own development process.
Rosa Luxemburg
Capitalism, as a result of its own inner contradictions, moves toward a point when it will be unbalanced, when it will simply become impossible.
Rosa Luxemburg
Freedom only for the members of the government, only for the members of the Party - though they are quite numerous - is no freedom at all.
Rosa Luxemburg
Revolutionary tactics cannot be invented by leaders they must develop spontaneously-history comes first, leaders' consciousness second.
Rosa Luxemburg
There is no democracy without socialism, and no socialism without democracy.
Rosa Luxemburg
[Geology] opens up such wide intellectual vistas and supplies a more perfectly unified and more comprehensive conception of nature than any other science.
Rosa Luxemburg
Bourgeois society stands at the crossroads, either transition to socialism or regression into barbarism.
Rosa Luxemburg
The more that social democracy develops, grows, and becomes stronger, the more the enlightened masses of workers will take their own destinies, the leadership of their movement, and the determination of its direction into their own hands.
Rosa Luxemburg
The clergy, no less than the capitalist class, lives on the backs of the people, profits from the degradation, the ignorance and the oppression of the people.
Rosa Luxemburg
Tomorrow the revolution will already 'raise itself with a rattle' and announce with fanfare, to your terror: I was, I am, I will be!
Rosa Luxemburg
Bourgeois class domination is undoubtedly an historical necessity, but, so too, the rising of the working class against it. Capital is an historical necessity, but, so too, its grave digger, the socialist proletariat.
Rosa Luxemburg
Marxism must abhor nothing so much as the possibility that it becomes congealed in its current form. It is at its best when butting heads in self-criticism, and in historical thunder and lightning, it retains its strength.
Rosa Luxemburg
History is the only true teacher, the revolution the best school for the proletariat.
Rosa Luxemburg
Being human means throwing your whole life on the scales of destiny when need be, all the while rejoicing in every sunny day and every beautiful cloud.
Rosa Luxemburg
The masses are the decisive element, they are the rock on which the final victory of the revolution will be built.
Rosa Luxemburg
The victory of socialism will not descend like fate from heaven.
Rosa Luxemburg
