"You may not be interest in war, but war is interested in you." - Trotsky
- skissane 5y agoLike many other famous quotes, it appears Trotsky himself never actually said this – although he did say something similar about "dialectics", which later got transferred to the more enduring topic of "war" – https://quoteinvestigator.com/2021/08/02/interested-war/ https://quoteinvestigator.com/2021/08/02/interested-war/
- narrator 5y agoIt's a fair translation since the dialectic to him meant all countries would eventually become communist by revolution which in most cases meant some sort of civil war.
