The Marxist doctrine is omnipotent because it is true. It is comprehensive and harmonious, and provides men with an integral world outlook irreconcilable with any form of superstition, reaction, or defence of bourgeois oppression. It is the legitimate successor to the best that man produced in the nineteenth century, as represented by German philosophy, English political economy and French socialism. -- Vladimir Lenin
Italian is the language of song. German is good for philosophy and English for poetry. French is best at precision; it has a rigour to it. -- Maurice Druon
