“Quello che sto per dire è molto strano. Ma scrivere mi è NOIOSO. Si, tra la rossa nebbia, tra questi schifosi orrori senza precedenti, al fondo di questa insensibilità vi è la noia. Un turbinio di eventi e - immobilità. Ogni cosa sta crollando, sta andando al diavolo - e non c'è vita. Nella vita umana vi è sempre l'elemento della lotta volontaria; adesso essa quasi non esiste. Ve n'è così poca, nel centro degli eventi. E vi è il fetore della carogna.”

“… I am disappointed by the events of the last days [October 1917] not because I do not desire the triumph of the working class in Russia but precisely because I pray for it with all the strength of my soul…. [We must] remember Engels' remark that there would be no greater historical tragedy for the working class than to seize political power when it is not ready for it. [Such a seizure of power] would compel it to retreat far back from the positions which were won in February and March of the present year.”
