More from Vladimir Lenin
"A revolution is impossible without a revolutionary situation; furthermore, not every revolutionary situation leads to revolution."
"We shall be victorious because we are right."
"There are no morals in politics; there is only expedience. A scoundrel may be of use to us precisely because he is a scoundrel."
"The most important thing is to make sure that the people don't know what we're doing."
"We must execute not only the guilty. Execution of the innocent will impress the masses even more."
About Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924)
Russian revolutionary who led the October 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and founded the Soviet state; What Is to Be Done? (1902) shaped 20th-century revolutionary practice. Closely associated with Leon Trotsky (his Red Army organizer and 1917 partner) and Karl Marx (the source Lenin claimed (and adapted)). For an intellectual contrast, see Karl Popper, Austrian-British philosopher — Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies (1945) systematically attacked Marx-and-Lenin 'historical inevitability' as the philosophical structure that produces totalitarianism — Lenin's vanguard-party doctrine is Popper's primary 20th-century target.
