Vladimir Lenin on Materialism
← Back to Vladimir Lenin Profile
“Materialism is the recognition of "objects in themselves", or outside the mind; ideas and sensations are copies of images of those objects.”
“The natural scientist must be a modern materialist, a conscious adherent of the materialism represented by Marx, i.e., he must be a dialectical materialist.”
“The sole "property" of matter with whose recognition philosophical materialism is bound up is the property of being an objective reality, of existing outside the mind.”
