Quote #8 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Revolution and Martyrdom
“...we are not only singing songs of fraternal sorrow over the graves of these heroes, but also a hymn of victory over the grave of czarist autocracy with all its crimes and bloodshed, its obscurantism, its cruel indifference to the sufferings of the working people, its serfdom, its abuse of the common soldiers, its corrupt czarist officials, its prisons, its Siberian exile, its whips, gallows, arbitrary violence and oppression.”
