Image
Nothing has changed in Russias policy. Her methods, her tactics, her maneuvers may change, but the pole starworld dominationis immutable.
Karl Marx
Image
Bourgeois society ought long ago to have gone to the dogs through sheer idleness for those of its members who work, acquire nothing, and those who acquire anything, do not work.
Karl Marx
Image
Men make their own history but not in circumstances of their own choosing.
Karl Marx
Image
Every provisional political set-up following a revolution requires a dictatorship, and an energetic dictatorship at that.
Karl Marx
Image
The state is the executive committee of the ruling class.
Karl Marx

Karl Marx
Image
Surplus-value and the rate of surplus-value are... the invisible essence to be investigated, whereas the rate of profit and hence the form of surplus-value as profit are visible surface phenomena

Karl Marx
Image
Do not be deluded by the abstract word Freedom. Whose freedom? Not the freedom of one individual in relation to another, but freedom of Capital to crush the worker.
Karl Marx
Image
Ideas do not exist separately from language.
Karl Marx
Image
The values of commodities are directly as the times of labor employed in their production, and are inversely as the productive powers of the labor employed.
Karl Marx
Image
The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley of ties that bound man to his natural superiors, and left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous cash payment.
Karl Marx
Image
In every stockjobbing swindle every one knows that some time or other the crash must come, but every one hopes that it may fall on the head of his neighbor, after he himself has caught the shower of gold and placed it in safety.
Karl Marx
Image
Society is undergoing a silent revolution, which must be submitted to, and which takes no more notice of the human existences it breaks down than an earthquake regards the houses it subverts. The classes and the races, too weak to master the new conditions of life, must give way.
Karl Marx
Image
Money is the alienated essence of man's work and existence this essence dominates him and he worships it.
Karl Marx
Image
Capital brings forth living offspring, or at the least, lays the golden eggs.
Karl Marx
Image
The burgeoisie, by the rapid improvement of all instruments of production, by the immensely facilitated means of communication, draws all nations into civilization.
