Vladimir Lenin
Study, learn more, learn forever .
Vladimir Lenin
Exchange, fair or unfair, always presupposes and includes the rule of the bourgeoisie.

Revolution consists not in the new class commanding, governing with the aid of the old state machine, but in this class smashing this machine and commanding, governing with the aid of a new machine.
Vladimir Lenin (State and Revolution: Fully Annotated Edition)
To regard the categories of the bourgeois system as eternal and natural is most typical of bourgeois philosophers.
Vladimir Lenin (What the "Friends of the People" Are and How They Fight the Social-Democrats)
even the most artful guardians of the present system cannot prevent the awakening of proletarian thought.
Vladimir Lenin (What the "Friends of the People" Are and How They Fight the Social-Democrats)
People always were and always will be the stupid victims of deceit and self-deceit in politics until they learn to discover the interests of some class or other behind all moral, religious, political and social phrases, declarations, and promises...until they realize that every old institution, however barbarous and rotten it may appear to be, is maintained by the forces of some ruling classes.
V. I. Lenin, The Three Sources and Three Component Parts of Marxism
In a 16 June 1919 telegram to Lenin from the Petrograd front, he wrote with slightly comical bravado and arrogance: “Naval experts assert that the capture of Krasnaya Gorka [a Petrograd fort] from the sea runs counter to naval science. I can only deplore such so-called science. The swift capture of Gorka was due to the grossest interference in the operations by me and civilians generally, even to the point of countermanding orders on land and sea and imposing our own. I consider it my duty to declare that I shall continue to act in this way in future, despite all my reverence for science.”30 Lenin, who knew that the fort had not, despite Stalin’s claim, fallen from a naval attack, seems to have been amused by Stalin’s swagger. He left a notation on the telegram: “??? Krasnaya Gorka was taken by land.”31
Oleg V. Khlevniuk (Stalin: New Biography of a Dictator)
I think that after five years of the Russian “revolution the most important thing for all of us, Russian and foreign comrades alike, is to sit down and study. We have only now obtained the opportunity to do so. I do not know how long this opportunity will last. I do not know for how long the capitalist powers will give us the opportunity to study in peace. But we must take advantage of every moment of respite from fighting, from war, to study, and to study from scratch.” “Lenin’s last speech to the Communist International (Fourth Congress; 13 November 1922)
Vladimir Lenin
Yet even though Lenin had shirked the mantle of an all-powerful statesman in life, he is seen as the most important founder of this major epoch in Russian history after his death. Indeed, the very same man who signed his name as “V. Lenin” because he wished to remain anonymous became one of the major icons of not only Russian history in the early twentieth century but world history as a whole.
Hourly History (Vladimir Lenin: A Life From Beginning to End (Revolutionaries))
V. Не парламентарная республика, — возвращение к ней от С. Р. Д. было бы шагом назад, — а республика Советов рабочих, батрацких и крестьянских депутатов по всей стране, снизу доверху. Устранение полиции, армии, чиновничества. Плата всем чиновникам, при выборности и сменяемости всех их в любое время, не выше средней платы хорошего рабочего.
Vladimir Lenin (The April Theses)
Life will assert itself. Let the bourgeoisie rave, work itself into a frenzy, go to extremes, commit follies, take vengeance on the Bolsheviks in advance, and endeavour to kill off (as in India, Hungary, Germany, etc.) more hundreds, thousands, and hundreds of thousands of yesterday’s and tomorrow’s Bolsheviks. In acting thus, the bourgeoisie is acting as all historically doomed classes have done. Communists should know that, in any case, the future belongs to them; therefore, we can (and must) combine the most intense passion in the great revolutionary struggle, with the coolest and most sober appraisal of the frenzied ravings of the bourgeoisie.
V. I. Lenin (Left-Wing Communism, an Infantile Disorder: A Popular Essay in Marxian Strategy and Tactics)
Eu care am citit CRITICA RAȚIUNII PURE la 60 de wați, pe Beatrixgasse, pe Locke, Leibniz și Hume, eu care, la lumina slabă a lămpilor din bezna Bibliotecii Naționale, am devorat toate conceptele din toate timpurile, de la presocratici până la FIINȚA ȘI NEANTUL, care i-am citit pe Kafka, pe Rimbaud și pe Blake la 25 de wați, într-un hotel din Paris, pe Freud, pe Adler și pe Jung la 360 de wați, pe o stradă părăsită din Berlin, acompaniată în surdină de răsucirile amețitoare ale studiilor lui Chopin, eu care am studiat pe o plajă genoveză un discurs înflăcărat despre expropierea bunurilor intelectuale, scris pe o hârtie pătată de sare și îndoită de soare, care am citit la Klagenfurt LA COMEDIE HUMAINE în trei săptămâni, în pofida febrei și a slăbiciunii provocate de antibiotice, la München pe Proust până în zori, până când meseriașii au căzut cu acoperiș cu tot în camera mea de la mansardă, pe moraliștii francezi și pe logiștii vienezi, cu ciorapii lăsați, eu care am citit totul fumând treizeci de țigări pe zi, de la DE RERUM NATURA până la LE CULTE DE LA RAISON, care am practicat istoria și filozofia, medicina și psihologia, care am lucrat în ospiciul Steinhof la anamnezele schizofrenicilor și ale maniaco-depresivilor, eu care mi-am luat în Auditorium Maximum, la numai șase grade peste zero și la 38 de grade la umbră, notițe despre De mundo, De mente, De motu, eu care i-am citit pe Marx și pe Engels după ce m-am spălat pe cap și beată moartă pe V. I. Lenin, eu care am citit în derută și în dorința de a evada, jurnal după jurnal, încă de mică, în fața sobei, la foc, ziare, reviste, și cărți de buzunar peste tot, în toate gările, trenurile, în tramvaie, autobuze, avioane, eu care am citit totul despre toate, în patru limbi, fortiter, fortiter, înțelegând tot ce se poate citi, și eliberată pentru o oră de tot ce am citit, mă întind lângă Ivan și îi spun: O să scriu această carte, care încă nu există, pentru tine, dacă vrei cu adevărat. Dar trebuie să vrei cu adevărat, să mi-o ceri, iar eu n-am sa-ți cer niciodată s-o citești. Ivan spune: Să sperăm că o să fie o carte cu final fericit. Să sperăm.
Ingeborg Bachmann (Malina)
Sometimes a scoundrel is useful to our party precisely because he is a scoundrel. V. I. Lenin
Catherine Merridale (Lenin on the Train)
Take a factory, a railway, a ship on the high seas, said Engels: is it not clear that not one of these complex technical establishments, based on the use of machinery and the systematic co-operation of many people, could function without a certain amount of subordination and, consequently, without a certain amount of authority or power?
Vladimir Lenin (State and Revolution: Fully Annotated Edition)
A thousand times the imperialists have “renounced all thought” of annexations and of the financial strangulation of weak nations. But should we not compare these renunciations with the facts, which show that any one of the big banks of Germany, England, France and the United States does hold small nations “in subjection”? - V.I Lenin:

Als ik nu vanuit dit standpunt de kwestie van de taken van de jeugd aanroer, moet ik zeggen dat die taken van de jeugd in het algemeen en van de communistische jeugdbonden en alle mogelijke andere organisaties in het bijzonder met één enkel woord kunnen worden aangeduid: Die taak is: leren.

Antifa essentially serves as the shock troops, to use a term coined by V. I. Lenin to describe CHEKA, the private militia of the Bolsheviks, for the Democratic Party.
