More quotes by Vladimir Lenin
Pacifism, the preaching of peace in the abstract, is one of the means of duping the working class.
Vladimir Lenin
In capitalist society we have a democracy that is curtailed, wretched, false, a democracy only for the rich, for the minority. The dictatorship of the proletariat, the period of transition to communism, will for the first time create democracy for the people, for the majority, along with the necessary suppression of the exploiters, of the minority.
Vladimir Lenin
It is impossible to predict the time and progress of revolution. It is governed by its own more or less mysterious laws.
Vladimir Lenin
The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.
Vladimir Lenin
Where and when have riots and anarchy been provoked by wise measures? If the government had acted wisely, and if their measures had met the needs of the poor peasants, would there have been unrest among the peasant masses?
Vladimir Lenin
Act with the greatest determination and on the offensive. The defensive is the death of every armed rising.
Vladimir Lenin
The most important thing is to know how to awaken in the still undeveloped masses an intelligent attitude towards religious questions and an intelligent criticism of religions.
Vladimir Lenin
History causes the military problem to become the essence of the political problem.
Vladimir Lenin
Whoever wants to reach socialism by any other path than that of political democracy will inevitably arrive at conclusions that are absurd and reactionary both in the economic and the political sense.
Vladimir Lenin
Can a nation be free if it oppresses other nations? It cannot.
Vladimir Lenin
People always have been and they always will be stupid victims of deceit and self-deception in politics.
Vladimir Lenin
Behind the October Revolution there are more influential personalities than the thinkers and executors of Marxism.
Vladimir Lenin
The aim of socialism is not only to abolish the present division of mankind into smaller states and all-national isolation, not only to bring the nations closer to each other, but also to merge them.
Vladimir Lenin
Sometimes quantity has a quality all its own.
Vladimir Lenin
Democracy is indispensable to socialism.
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
The Poor Peasants' Committees are necessary to fight the kulaks, the rich, the exploiters, who shackle the working peasants.
Vladimir Lenin
The bourgeoisie incites the workers of one nation against those of another in the endeavour to keep them disunited.
Vladimir Lenin
Every cook must learn to rule the State.
Vladimir Lenin
But every little difference may become a big one if it is insisted on.
Vladimir Lenin
