Of all the treasures a state can possess, the human lives of its citizens are for us the most precious.

We built this [socialistic] society not for the curbing of personal liberty, but in order that human personalities should really feel free.

Under national "socialism", there is also only one party. But nothing will come out of this fascist one-party system.

I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this - who will count the votes, and how.

Many understand "state socialism" in this way. Sometimes a system is concealed behind this term in which the capitalist state, in the interests of preparation for the conduct of war, takes upon itself the maintenance of a certain number of private enterprises.

A man's eyes should be torn out if he can only see the past

As soon as there are no more classes, as soon as boundaries between classes are effaced, as soon as only a few but non-fundamental differences between various strata of the socialist society remain - there can no longer be nourishing ground for the formation of parties struggling among themselves.
