You are pitiful, isolated individuals! You are bankrupts. Your role is played out. Go where you belong from now on — into the dustbin of history!

Leon Trotksy
About This Quote

At the beginning of the Cold War, the people of the Soviet Union believed that they were superior to everyone. That everyone else was primitive, uneducated and unenlightened. The Soviet Union believed that they would be able to take over the world through military force. But, they were wrong.

They had no idea how to run a country because they had no idea how people worked. They thought that they could control everyone because there was no one who could disagree with them.
