Vladimir Lenin

The advanced detachment of the proletariat is a vanguard that is capable of leading the entire mass of the working people, and not merely of pushing them forward.

The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.

A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

The victory of socialism in all countries of the world is inevitable.

Religion is the opium of the people.

We shall shatter all the old laws and institutions, all the old traditions and customs, and we shall create new ones.

Learning is light, ignorance is darkness.

A revolution is a serious business.

The important thing is to keep the initiative.

The goal of revolution is to seize power and hold it.

The greatest danger is to lose contact with the masses.

We need to dream.

The working class is revolutionary or it is nothing.

History knows all sorts of metamorphoses. Relying on the reliability of one's convictions, on the honesty of one's intentions, on the sincerity of one's declarations — this is not a serious attitude to politics.

We must not forget that a communist is not only a fighter, but also a builder.

If we want to achieve victory, we must learn to combine the most ruthless revolutionary methods with the most cautious and pragmatic approach.

The best way to celebrate the anniversary of the October Revolution is to consolidate its gains and to prepare new victories.

The working class is the only class that can truly lead the revolution.

The party is the mind, honor, and conscience of our epoch.

We must learn, learn, and learn again.
