The Extraordinary All-Russia Congress Of Soviets Of Peasants' Deputies "A necessary condition for the victory of the socialist revolution, which alone can secure the lasting triumph and full implementation of the law on land, is the close alliance of the working and exploited peasantry with the working class—the proletariat—in all the advanced countries."
Meeting of the All-Russia Central Executive Committee "Peace cannot be concluded only from above. Peace must be won from below. We put no trust in the German generals, but we have faith in the German people."
From The Council Of People's Commissars To The Revolutionary Military Committee "All public organisations must be drawn into the fight against the food plunderers."
