“Where the worker is regulated bureaucratically from childhood onwards, where he believes in authority, in those set over him, the main thing is to teach him to walk by himself.” -
Marx
"It is illogical and incorrect to reduce everything to the economic [socialist] revolution, for the question is:
how to eliminate [political] oppression? It cannot be eliminated without an economic revolution... But to
limit ourselves to this is to lapse into absurd and wretched ... Economism." -
Lenin
"[During a revolution, bourgeois democratic]
demands [of the working class] ...
push so hard on the
outer limits of
capital's rule that
they appear likewise as
forms of
transition to a proletarian dictatorship." -
Luxemburg
“Well, then go forward, Tower of Bebel! [August] Bebel is one of the most brilliant representatives of scientific international socialism. His writings, speeches and works make up a great tower, a strong arsenal, from which the working class should take their weapons. We cannot recommend it enough… And if the [International] deserves to be named Tower of Bebel... well, then we are lucky to have such a Tower of Bebel with us.” -
