A lie told often enough becomes the truth.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
A revolution is impossible without a revolutionary situation; furthermore, not every revolutionary situation leads to revolution.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
All our lives we fought against exalting the individual, against the elevation of the single person, and long ago we were over and done with the business of a hero, and here it comes up again: the glorification of one personality. This is not good at all. I am just like everybody else.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Capitalists are no more capable of self-sacrifice than a man is capable of lifting himself up by his own bootstraps.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Communism is Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Democracy is indispensable to socialism.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle. The modern industrial proletariat does not belong to the category of such classes.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Fascism is capitalism in decay.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greek republics: Freedom for slave owners.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
It is impossible to predict the time and progress of revolution. It is governed by its own more or less mysterious laws.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
One man with a gun can control 100 without one.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
The goal of socialism is communism.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
The government is tottering. We must deal it the death blow an any cost. To delay action is the same as death.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
The history of all countries shows that the working class exclusively by its own effort is able to develop only trade-union consciousness.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
The most important thing when ill is to never lose heart.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
There are no morals in politics; there is only expedience. A scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Under socialism all will govern in turn and will soon become accustomed to no one governing.
Vladimir Ilyich 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 Ilyich Lenin
While the State exists there can be no freedom; when there is freedom there will be no State.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Without a revolutionary theory there cannot be a revolutionary movement.
