Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin
All extremes are bad. All that is good and useful, if carried to extremes, may become-and beyond a certain limit is bound to become-bad and injurious.
Vladimir Lenin
Bah, tombstones are only good for pigeons to sit on
Vladimir Lenin
One cannot live in society and be free from society.
Vladimir Lenin
It is more pleasant and useful to go through the 'experience of the revolution' than to write about it.
Vladimir Lenin
People always have been and they always will be stupid victims of deceit and self-deception in politics.
Vladimir Lenin
