Vladimir Lenin
For the first time the peasant has seen real freedom - freedom to eat his bread, freedom from starvation.
Vladimir Lenin
Only struggle educates the exploited class. Only struggle discloses to it the magnitude of its own power, widens its horizon, enhances its abilities, clarifies its mind, forges its will.
Vladimir Lenin
It is at moments of need that one learns who one's friends are. Defeated armies learn their lesson.
Vladimir Lenin
The Bolshevik slogans and ideas on the whole have been confirmed by history but concretely things have worked out differently they are more original, more peculiar, more varied than anyone could have expected.
Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin
Man’s consciousness not only reflects the objective world, but creates it.
Vladimir Lenin
Those who are opposed to armed uprising ... must be ruthlessly kicked out as enemies, traitors and cowards.
Vladimir Lenin
Dictatorship is rule based directly upon force and unrestricted by any laws. The revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat is rule won and maintained by the use of violence by the proletariat against the bourgeoisie, rule that is unrestricted by any laws.
Vladimir Lenin
Capitalists are no more capable of self-sacrifice than a man is capable of lifting himself up by his own bootstraps.
Vladimir Lenin
Any army which does not train to use all the weapons, all the means and methods of warfare that the enemy possesses, or may possess, is behaving in an unwise or even criminal manner. This applies to politics even more than it does to the art of war.
Vladimir Lenin
The bourgeoisie incites the workers of one nation against those of another in the endeavour to keep them disunited.
Vladimir Lenin
The entire trend of development is towards abolition of coercive domination of one part of society over another.
Vladimir Lenin
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Vladimir Lenin
