Adventurist Quotes

An atmosphere of extreme tension reigned during this period; it was necessary to act without mercy. I think that it was justified.

The two sides would have been condemned to disaster. They had links that went right up to Hitler. That far. Trotsky had similar links, without doubt. Hitler was an adventurist, as was Trotsky, they had traits in common. And the rightists, Bukharin and Rykov, had links with them. And, of course, many of the military leaders. (Vyacheslav Molotov)
