Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
Lenin had the almost unique privilege of actually constructing his Utopia in a great and powerful State; he was the nearest approach known to history to Plato's philosopher king. The fact that the result is unsatisfactory is, I think, mainly due to intellectual errors on the part of Marx and Lenin--errors which remain intellectual although they have emotional source in the dictatorial character of the two men. - Bertrand Russell
