Nikolai Bukharin quotes
-
“Christian love, which applies to all, even to one's enemies, is the worst adversary of Communism.”

“We see now that infringement of freedom is necessary with regard to the opponents of the revolution. At a time of revolution we cannot allow freedom for the enemies of the people and of the revolution. That is a surely clear, irrefutable conclusion.”
-- Nikolai BukharinSource : "Programme of the World Revolution". Book by Nikolai Bukharin. Chapter VII: "Freedom for the Working Class and the poorest Elements of the Peasantry; Restrictions for the Bourgeoisie", www.marxists.org. 1918.

“But to everything in this world there comes an end; there even comes an end to the torments suffered in those intermediate states of transition when the last secret tear of one's soul is bitterly swallowed, and the crisis passes, resolving itself into some new sort of phase, which even as it comes into existence is fated in turn to pass away, to disappear in the eternal changing of the times and seasons.”
-- Nikolai BukharinSource : Nikolai Bukharin (2005). “How It All Began: The Prison Novel”, p.110, Columbia University Press
