More quotes by Vladimir Lenin
The Bolsheviks could not have retained power for two and a half months, let alone two and a half years, without the most rigorous and truly iron discipline in our Party.
Vladimir Lenin
Peace, Land, and Bread! All power to the Soviet!
Vladimir Lenin
People always have been the foolish victims of deception and self-deception in politics, and they always will be, until they have learned to seek out the interests of some class or other behind all moral, religious, political and social phrases, declarations and promises.
Vladimir Lenin
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
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
Give me a child for the first 5 years of his life and he will be mine forever.
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
The bourgeoisie is many times stronger than we. To give it the weapon of freedom of the press is to ease the enemy's cause, to help the class enemy. We do not desire to end in suicide, so we will not do this.
Vladimir Lenin
It is not national interests we are upholding - we claim that the interests of socialism, the interests of world socialism, rank higher than national interests, higher than the interests of the state. We are defenders of the socialist fatherland.
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
Freedom of speech and the press must be complete. But then freedom of association must be complete too.
Vladimir Lenin
You cannot do anything without rousing the masses to action.
Vladimir Lenin
Only an armed people can be the real bulwark of popular liberty.
Vladimir Lenin
One fool can ask more questions in a minute than 12 wise men can answer in an hour.
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
One man with a gun can control 100 without one.
Vladimir Lenin
Hundreds of thousands and millions of wage slaves of capital and peasants downtrodden by the serf-owners are going to the slaughter for the dynastic interests of a handful of crowned brigands, for the profits of the bourgeoisie in its drive to plunder foreign lands.
Vladimir Lenin
We set ourselves the ultimate aim of abolishing the state, i.e., all organized and systematic violence, all use of violence against people in general.
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
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Vladimir Lenin
