Karl Marx

Karl Marx

Karl Marx
Image
The history of all previous societies has been the history of class struggles.
Karl Marx
Image
And as for the Jews, who since the emancipation of their sect have everywhere put themselves, at least in the person of their eminent representatives, at the head of the counter-revolution -- what awaits them?
Karl Marx
Image
Reason has always existed, but not always in a reasonable form.
Karl Marx
Image
Is a fixed income not a good thing? Does not everyone love to count on a sure thing? Especially every petty-bourgeois, narrow-minded Frenchman? the 'ever needy' man?
Karl Marx
Image
Since labour is motion, time is its natural measure.
