"The goal of revolution is not to replace one government with another, but to replace the state itself."
"The goal of our party is the conquest of political power by the proletariat."
"It is absolutely ridiculous to assert that any given economic form can disappear before the conditions for its existence have ripened."
"The transition from capitalism to communism will certainly create a great variety of political forms, but their essence will inevitably be the same: the dictatorship of the proletariat."
"The most dangerous thing about opportunism is that it hides behind revolutionary phrases."
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.
