One of Trotsky's famous quotes (which also sums up the [[Atheism]] in the Communist Movement) was : "Religions are illogical primitive ignorance. There is nothing as ridiculous and tragic as a religious government." However, he was ethnically a Ukrainian-Jew. Owing to this, the chief rabbi of Russia at the time, Jacob Maze, attempted to speak on behalf of the Russian Jews to Trotsky to use his influence in the Red Army to stop the pogroms against the Jews conducted by Lenin. Trotsky, as usual, told him he considered himself a Communist revolutionary and didn't even consider himself even remotely Jewish, causing Maze to reply with "Trotsky makes the revolutions, and the Bronsteins pay the bills.", referring to Trotsky's birth name Lev Bronstein.
