"The proletariat should not ignore peaceful methods of struggle — they serve its ordinary, day-to-day interests, they are necessary in periods of preparation for revolution — but it must never forget that in certain conditions the class struggle assumes the form of armed conf lict and civil war; there are times when the interests of the proletariat call forruthless extermination of its enemies in open armed clashes."
- Lenin, Lessons of the Commune (1908)
