More from Vladimir Lenin
"Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun."
"We must wage a ruthless struggle against all manifestations of nationalistic chauvinism."
"One man with a gun can control 100 without one."
"The sound of the machine-gun is the finest music in the world."
"To rely upon conviction, upon loyalty, upon the conscientiousness of the army – that is stupidity, that is childishness, that is naiveté, that is unworthiness."
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.
