Karl Marx
The Jews of Poland are the smeariest of all races.
Karl Marx

Karl Marx
If production be capitalistic in form, so, too, will be reproduction.
Karl Marx
A spider conducts operations that resemble those of a weaver, and a bee puts to shame many an architect in the construction of her cells. But what distinguishes the worst architect from the best of bees is this, that the architect raises his structure in imagination before he erects it in reality.
Karl Marx
The wealthy man is the man whois much, not the one who has much
Karl Marx
The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They open declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. WORKING MEN OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE!
