"The working class is revolutionary or it is nothing."
"We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us."
"The state will wither away only when there are no longer any classes."
"We must combine the struggle for democracy with the struggle for socialism."
"The party is the mind, honor, and conscience of our epoch."
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.
