Vladimir Lenin

Vladimir Lenin
Image
No mercy for these enemies of the people, the enemies of socialism, the enemies of the working people! War to the death against the rich and their hangers-on, the bourgeois intellectuals war on the rogues, the idlers and the rowdies!
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Ideological talk and phrase mongering about political liberties should be disposed with all that is just mere chatter and phrase mongering. We should get away from those phrases.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
People always have been and they always will be stupid victims of deceit and self-deception in politics.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The entire trend of development is towards abolition of coercive domination of one part of society over another.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Be as radical as Reality.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Those who are opposed to armed uprising ... must be ruthlessly kicked out as enemies, traitors and cowards.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Behind the October Revolution there are more influential personalities than the thinkers and executors of Marxism.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
But every little difference may become a big one if it is insisted on.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The constitution of Soviet Russia must insure equal rights for all citizens regardless of sex, creed, race, or nationality.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
When a liberal is abused, he says, ‘Thank God they didn’t beat me.’ When he is beaten, he thanks God they didn’t kill him. When he is killed, he will thank God that his immortal soul has been delivered from its mortal clay.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
A party is the vanguard of a class, and its duty is to lead the masses and not merely to reflect the average political level of the masses.
Vladimir Lenin
