Famous quotes with Russian revolution

• The chief fruit of the First World War was the Russian Revolution and the rise of Communism as a national power.

  Whittaker Chambers
• The Russian people are suffering from economic fatigue and from disillusionment with the Allies! The world thinks the Russian Revolution is at an end. Do not be mistaken. The Russian Revolution is just beginning.

  Alexander Kerensky
• The Russian Revolution took almost everything from me but the Bolsheviks left me with one privilage--to be a private person.

  Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna of Russia
• The Soviet Union does not allow any church of any kind to interfere with education, and religion is not taught in public schools. It seems to me that this is the greatest gift of the Russian Revolution to the modern world. Most educated modern men no longer believe in religious dogma. If questioned they will usually resort to double-talk before admitting the fact. But who today actually believes that this world is ruled and directed by a benevolent person of great power who, on humble appeal, will change the course of events at our request? Who believes in miracles? Many folk follow religious ceremonies and services and allow their children to learn fairy tales and so-called religious truth, which in time the children come to recognize as conventional lies told by their parents and teachers for the children's good. One can hardly exaggerate the moral disaster of the custom. We have to thank the Soviet Union for the courage to stop it.

  W. E. B. Du Bois
