How do you tell a communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

In the last several years, I have been troubled by the right shift of the Republican party too far to the right.

Communism doesn’t work because people like to own stuff.

Communists have always played an active role in the fight by colonial countries for their freedom, because the short-term objects of Communism would always correspond with the long-term objects of freedom movements.

I am a Christian. That obliges me to be a Communist.

A specter is haunting Europe – the specter of communism.

A new breed of Republicans has taken over the GOP. It is a new breed which is seeking to sell to Americans a doctrine which is as old as mankind – the doctrine of racial division, the doctrine of racial prejudice, the doctrine of white supremacy.

I would remind you the lesser of two socialists is still a socialist.

The U.S.S.R. had absolutely nothing to do with the triumph of the Cuban Revolution.

The term ‚the American Left‘ is as near to being meaningless or nonsensical as any term could really be in politics. It isn’t really a force in politics anymore. And it would do well to ask itself why that is.

At the outset, I want to say that the suggestion that the struggle in South Africa is under the influence of foreigners or communists is wholly incorrect. I have done whatever I did because of my experience in South Africa and my own proudly felt African background, and not because of what any outsider might have said.

I never accepted Communist dogma or theory.

There are many people in the world who really don’t understand-or say they don’t-what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world. Let them come to Berlin!

Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both.

Reactionaries often describe both Marx and Lenin as theorists, without taking into consideration that their utopias inspired Russia and China – the two countries called upon to lead a new world which will allow for human survival if imperialism does not first unleash a criminal, exterminating war.

If I decide to make a coat red in the show, it’s not just red, I think: is it communist red? Is it cherry cordial? Is it ruby red? Or is it apple red? Or the big red balloon red?

Communism to me is one-third practice and two-thirds explanation.

So much of left-wing thought is a kind of playing with fire by people who don’t even know that fire is hot.

It’s impossible, I think, however much I’d become disillusioned politically or evolve into a post-political person, I don’t think I’d ever change my view that socialism is the best political moment humans have ever come up with.

Marx and Engels never talked about murdering the bourgeois. According to the old bourgeois concept, the judges were the ones who judged, and the executioners were the ones who executed.

Communism is a religion that is inspired, directed and motivated by the Devil himself who has declared war against Almighty God.

I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.

Castro couldn’t even go to the bathroom unless the Soviet Union put the nickel in the toilet.

Communism has decided against God, against Christ, against the Bible, and against all religion.

It was patriotism, not communism, that inspired me.

The Cold War isn’t thawing; it is burning with a deadly heat. Communism isn’t sleeping; it is, as always, plotting, scheming, working, fighting.

I have always been an old-line Henry Clay Whig.

Fascism is not defined by the number of its victims, but by the way it kills them.

Whether we are New Dealer, Old Dealer, Liberty Leaguer or Red, whether we agree or not, we still have the right to think and speak how we feel.

About astrology and palmistry: they are good because they make people vivid and full of possibilities. They are communism at its best. Everybody has a birthday and almost everybody has a palm.

There is not Communism or Marxism, but representative democracy and social justice in a well-planned economy.

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.

The theory of Communism may be summed up in one sentence: Abolish all private property.

Socialism, reduced to its simplest legal and practical expression, means the complete discarding of the institution of private property by transforming it into public property, and the division of the resultant public income equally and indiscriminately among the entire population.

I became a Communist by studying capitalist political economy, and when I had some understanding of that problem, it actually seemed to me so absurd, so irrational, so inhuman, that I simply began to elaborate on my own formulas for production and distribution.

Communism, like any other revealed religion, is largely made up of prophecies.

Many Communist government officials have a rigid, dictatorial power, but they live in constant suspicion and fear of anything that might undermine the power they have.

I am not a communist and neither is the revolutionary movement.

Socialism is the same as Communism, only better English.

Take it from someone who fled the Iron Curtain: I know what happens when you give the Russians a green light.

Republicans are for both the man and the dollar, but in case of conflict the man before the dollar.

I spent my life studying communism and Soviet systems.

There is a specter haunting Europe, the specter of Communism.

We must always remember that the Chinese revolution was not a peasant’s revolution, but one of the extreme Right.

I joined a small but growing post-Trotskyite Luxembourgist sect.
