More from Vladimir Lenin
"The victory of socialism in all countries of the world is inevitable."
"If Socialism can only be realized when the intellectual development of all the people permits it, then we shall not see Socialism for at least five hundred years."
"Pravda is a terrible word. It is a good word, but it is a terrible word. It means truth. And there is no truth."
"To talk about 'freedom of the press' is to talk about freedom of capital to bribe the press."
"The victory of socialism is possible first in a few or even in one single capitalist country taken separately."
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.
