Vladimir Lenin

Unity is a great thing and a great slogan. But what the workers’ cause needs is the unity of Marxists, not unity between Marxists, and opponents and distorters of Marxism.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Without revolutionary theory there can be no revolutionary movement.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Give me a child for the first 5 years of his life and he will be mine forever.
Vladimir Lenin

Give me your four year olds, and in a generation I will build a socialist state.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Bourgeois democracy is democracy of pompous phrases, solemn words, exuberant promises and the high-sounding slogans of freedom and equality. But, in fact, it screens the non-freedom and inferiority of women, the non-freedom and inferiority of the toilers and exploited.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The true leader must submerge himself in the fountain of the people.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Freedom of speech and the press must be complete. But then freedom of association must be complete too.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
We must pursue the removal of church property by any means necessary in order to secure for ourselves a fund of several hundred million gold rubles.
