Quote #9 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> State Socialism and Party Politics
“...the primary cause of the regimes' collapse did not come from without. It came from a loss of faith among the communists themselves that the institution that had once ruled broad swaths of the globe was viable. The party was not defeated; it lost the will to stay alive.”
