Image
Only by abolishing private property in land and building cheap and hygienic dwellings can the housing problem be solved.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The progressive historical role of capitalism may be summed up in two brief propositions: increase in the productive forces of social labour, and the socialisation of that labour. But both these facts manifest themselves in extremely diverse processes in different branches of the national economy.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The press should be not only a collective propagandist and a collective agitator, but also a collective organizer of the masses.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The whole struggle of our Party (and of the working class movement in Europe generally) must be directed against opportunism. The latter is not a current of opinion, not a tendency it (opportunism) has now become the organised tool of the bourgeoisie within the working class movement.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
When it comes to hang the capitalists they will compete with each other to sell us the rope at a lower price.
Vladimir Lenin

If democracy, in essence, means the abolition of class domination, then why should not a socialist minister charm the whole bourgeois world by orations on class collaboration?
Vladimir Lenin
Image
I am a bad, wicked man, but I am practicing moral self-purification I don't eat meat any more, I now eat rice cutlets.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
There are no morals in politics there is only expedience. A scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
No mercy for these enemies of the people, the enemies of socialism, the enemies of the working people! War to the death against the rich and their hangers-on, the bourgeois intellectuals war on the rogues, the idlers and the rowdies!
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Literature must become party literature. Down with unpartisan litterateurs! Down with the superman of literature! Literature must become a part of the general cause of the proletariat.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
But I can't listen to music too often. It affects your nerves, makes you want to say stupid, nice things, and stroke the heads of people who could create such beauty while living in this vile hell.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Our program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The constitution of Soviet Russia must insure equal rights for all citizens regardless of sex, creed, race, or nationality.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
In the last analysis, productivity of labour is the most important, the principal thing for the victory of the new social system.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
No amount of political freedom will satisfy the hungry masses.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
But every little difference may become a big one if it is insisted on.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The suppression of the bourgeois state by the proletarian state is impossible without violent revolution.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
All official and liberal science defends wage-slavery, whereas Marxism has declared relentless war on that slavery.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
How can you make a revolution without executions?
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Face the truth squarely. In politics that is always the best and the only correct attitude.
Vladimir Lenin
