More quotes by Ture Nerman

Struggle is life, and a movement, that no longer wants to fight, is beaten.

The fist in the face, that is the only argument capitalism understands, and Bolshevism has used the fist, hard, very hard but certainly justified.

But we hate the system - capitalism, militarism, reaction – and that system we scorn with a healthy, burning, eternal hatred.

A true socialist never hates people. He knows, that they are products of the great economical laws, which in the present society divides man into two nations of poor and rich… We socialists never hate specific individuals.

Capitalism is hard to reason with, but it vividly understands the fist of the working-class, and the Bolsheviks’ unforgettable honorary deed — no matter how the future may turn out, is that they for the first time in world history have shown the tormenters of humanity, an example of power that truly acts, not just talks.
