“Revisionism, or Right opportunism, is a bourgeois trend of thought that is even more dangerous than dogmatism. The revisionists, the Right opportunists, pay lip-service to Marxism; they too attack "dogmatism". But what they are really attacking is the quintessence of Marxism. They oppose or distort materialism and dialectics, oppose or try to weaken the people's democratic dictatorship and the leading role of the Communist Party, and oppose or try to weaken socialist transformation and socialist construction. After the basic victory of the socialist revolution in our country, there are still
a number of people who vainly hope to restore the capitalist system and fight the working class on every front, including the ideological one. And their
right-hand men in this struggle are the revisionists.”
― Mao Zedong, The Little Red Book

“Under capitalism democratism is restricted, cramped, curtailed, mutilated by all the conditions of wage slavery and of the poverty and misery of the masses”
― Vladimir Lenin, The State and Revolution

“Democracy for an insignificant minority, democracy for the rich: this is the democratism of capitalist society.”
― Vladimir Lenin, The State and Revolution
