The question stands as follows: either one way or the other, either back - to capitalism - or forward - to socialism. There is no third way, nor can there be.
-Joseph Stalin
It is perfectly obvious that the poorer the society which issues from a revolution...the more crude would be the forms assumed by bureaucratism, and the more dangerous it would become for socialist development
-Leon Trotsky
It is not always the subject-matter which plays a role in a work, but real mastery of the art always plays that role....It is my opinion that one should learn not only from the classics, but even from the enemy if he has wit. To learn is not just to merely imitate, but to command the techniques of literary mastery.
-Maksim Gorkii
Whoever expects a "pure" social revolution will never live to see it...
The Socialist revolution...cannot be
anything other than an outburst of mass struggle on the
part of all and sundry oppressed and discontented
elements. Inevitably, sections of the petty bourgeoisie
and of the backward workers will participate in it -
without such participation mass struggle is impossible;
without it no revolution is possible - and just as
inevitably will they bring into the movement their
prejudices, their reactionary fantasies, their weakness
and errors.
-Lenin
The tempos of our life will not allow rushed work and writing tossed off anyhow in the hope of getting it done as soon as possible...Among the proletarians, you still find ideas which are harmful to their interests.
-Maksim Gorkii
Unity has to be as tight as possible, we have to strive for a more and more close confederation.
-Lenin
