More from Leon Trotsky
"The revolution is not a dinner party, not an essay, not a painting, not a embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so 'benign', 'courteous', 'restrained' and 'magnanimous'."
"The revolution demands an iron will."
"Everyone has a right to be stupid, but Comrade MacDonald abuses the privilege."
"The struggle for the liberation of the working class is an international struggle."
"The old world will collapse, and the new world will be built on its ruins."
About Leon Trotsky (1879-1940)
Russian revolutionary, Red Army organizer, and theorist of permanent revolution who lost the post-Lenin succession struggle and was assassinated in Mexico in 1940. Closely associated with Vladimir Lenin (revolutionary partner and 1917 ally). For an intellectual contrast, see Joseph Stalin, Soviet leader (1924-1953) — Stalin exiled Trotsky in 1929, expunged him from Soviet history, and ordered his Mexico City ice-pick assassination in 1940. Their Permanent Revolution vs Socialism in One Country debate decided the Soviet 1920s succession — and Stalinist orthodoxy was defined by the loser's elimination.
