Quote by Leon Trotsky

Not believing in force is the same as not believing in gravitation.

Not believing in force is the same as not believing in gravi

Summary

This quote suggests that just as gravitation is an undeniable force in nature, force itself is an undeniable reality in human affairs. It implies that denying the existence of force is as irrational as denying the existence of gravity. It suggests that force is an inherent aspect of human behavior and social interactions, whether in the form of physical, political, or psychological force. The quote implies that force plays a role in shaping and influencing our lives, and refusing to acknowledge its existence is unrealistic.
