More quotes by Vladimir Lenin
But democracy is by no means a limit one may not overstep it is only one of the stages in the course of development from feudalism to capitalism, and from capitalism to Communism.
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
In the end, one or the other will triumph - a funeral dirge will be sung over the Soviet republic or over world capitalism.
Vladimir Lenin
Don't be afraid to admit defeat. Learn from defeat. Do over again more thoroughly, more carefully, and more systematically what you have done badly.
Vladimir Lenin
It is stupid to tolerate Nikola all Chekists have to be on alert to shoot anyone who doesn't turn up to work because of Nikola.
Vladimir Lenin
When one makes a Revolution, one cannot mark time one must always go forward - or go back. He who now talks about the 'freedom of the press' goes backward, and halts our headlong course towards Socialism.
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
We Social-Democrats always stand for democracy, not in the name of capitalism, but in the name of clearing the path for our movement, which clearing is impossible without the development of capitalism.
Vladimir Lenin
The entire trend of development is towards abolition of coercive domination of one part of society over another.
Vladimir Lenin
Free speech is a bourgeois prejudice.
Vladimir Lenin
All contemporary religions and churches, all and every kind of religious organization, Marxism has always viewed as organs of bourgeois reaction, serving as a defense of exploitation and the doping of the working-classes.
Vladimir Lenin
Germany will militarize herself out of existence, England will expand herself out of existence, and America will spend herself out of existence.
Vladimir Lenin
Freedom of speech and the press must be complete. But then freedom of association must be complete too.
Vladimir Lenin
Every cook must learn to rule the State.
Vladimir Lenin
A country of inveterate, backwoods, thick-headed, egotistic philistines
Vladimir Lenin
One of the chief symptoms of every revolution is the sharp and sudden increase in the number of ordinary people who take an active, independent and forceful interest in politics.
Vladimir Lenin
If Socialism can only be realized when the intellectual development of all the people permits it, then we shall not see Socialism for at least five hundred years.
Vladimir Lenin
Without a revolutionary theory there cannot be a revolutionary movement.
Vladimir Lenin
Monopolies, oligarchy, the striving for domination and not for freedom, the exploitation of an increasing number of small or weak nations by a handful of the richest or most powerful nations -- all these have given birth to those distinctive characteristics of imperialism which compel us to define it as parasitic or decaying capitalism.
Vladimir Lenin
It is not for nothing that Skaldin in one part of his book quotes Adam Smith: we have seen that both his views and the character of his arguments in many respects repeat the theses of that great ideologist of the progressive bourgeoisie.
