Vladimir Lenin — "Control over bread is control over everything."

"I can't listen to music too often. It affects your nerves, makes you want to say stupid nice things and stroke the heads of people who could create such beauty while living in this vile hell."

"The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation."

"It is necessary to use any ruse, cunning, unlawful method, evasion and concealment of truth."

"The revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat is power won and maintained by the violence of the proletariat against the bourgeoisie, power that is unrestricted by any laws."

"We must wage a ruthless struggle against all manifestations of nationalistic chauvinism."
