Herman Gorter
"For the Russian masses, the proletarians, knew for certain, and already saw during the war, and in part before their very eyes, that the peasants would soon be on their side."

War

Herman Gorter

Economy

Quote_1.png
Herman Gorter

Revolution

Quote_1.png
Herman Gorter
"What does it mean with regard to tactics, this fact that the proletariat of Western Europe stands all alone: that it has no prospect of any help whatsoever from any other class?"

Politics

Quote_1.png
Herman Gorter
"The revolution in Russia was victorious with the help of the poor peasants. This should always be borne in mind here in Western Europe and all the world over. But the workers in Western Europe stand alone: this should never be forgotten in Russia."

Herman Gorter
"There is an enormous difference between Russia and Western Europe."
