More quotes by Vladimir Lenin
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Vladimir Lenin
The natural scientist must be a modern materialist, a conscious adherent of the materialism represented by Marx, i.e., he must be a dialectical materialist.
Vladimir Lenin
No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself.
Vladimir Lenin
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
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
We must follow the rule: Better fewer, but better. We must follow the rule: Better get good human material in two or even three years than work in haste without hope of getting any at all.
Vladimir Lenin
Atheism is a natural and inseparable part of Marxism, of the theory and practice of scientific socialism. Our program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism.
Vladimir Lenin
The true leader must submerge himself in the fountain of the people.
Vladimir Lenin
Unity must be won, and only the workers, the class-conscious workers themselves can win it - by stubborn and persistent effort.
Vladimir Lenin
The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them in parliament.
Vladimir Lenin
But every little difference may become a big one if it is insisted on.
Vladimir Lenin
Under socialism all will govern in turn and will soon become accustomed to no one governing.
Vladimir Lenin
Freedom of speech and the press must be complete. But then freedom of association must be complete too.
Vladimir Lenin
This fear of criticism displayed by the advocates of freedom of criticism cannot be attributed solely to craftiness. No, the majority of the Economists look with sincere resentment upon all theoretical controversies, factional disagreements, broad political questions, plans for organising revolutionaries, etc.
Vladimir Lenin
Chess is only a recreation and not an occupation.
Vladimir Lenin
The war is relentless: it puts the alternative in a ruthless relief: either to perish, or to catch up with the advanced countries and outdistance them, too, in economic matters.
Vladimir Lenin
A political leader who desires to be useful to the revolutionary proletariat must be able to distinguish concrete cases of compromises that are inexcusable and are an expression of opportunism and treachery.
Vladimir Lenin
Recovery proceeding excellently. Am sure that the crushing of the Kazan Czechs and whiteguards, as well as of the kulak extortioners supporting them, will be exemplarily ruthless.
Vladimir Lenin
Victory will belong only to those who have faith in the people, those who are immersed in the life-giving spring of popular creativity.
Vladimir Lenin
Politics begin where the masses are, not where there are thousands, but where there are millions, that is where serious politics begin.
Vladimir Lenin
