Famous quotes containing the words communist and/or party:

    “I am a communist because I believe that the Communist idea is a state form of Christianity.”
    —Alexander Zhuravlyov (b. 1924)

    “In inner-party politics, these methods lead, as we shall yet see, to this: the party organization substitutes itself for the party, the central committee substitutes itself for the organization, and, finally, a “dictator” substitutes himself for the central committee.”
