More quotes by Karl Marx
The existence of the state is inseparable from the existence of slavery.
Karl Marx
There is a physical relation between physical things. But it is different with commodities.
Karl Marx
A circuit performed by a capital and meant to be a periodical process, not an individual act, is called its turnover. The duration of this turnover is determined by the sum of its time of production and its time of circulation.
Karl Marx
A heavy or progressive or graduated income tax is necessary for the proper development of Communism.
Karl Marx
...the French Revolution gave rise to ideas which led beyond the ideas of the entire old world order. The revolutionary movement which began in 1789... gave rise to the communist idea which Babeuf's friend Buonarroti re-introduced in France after the Revolution of 1830. This idea, consistently developed, is the idea of the new world order.
Karl Marx
To be radical is to grasp things by the root.
Karl Marx
Anyone wanting a new house picks one from among those built on speculation or still in process of construction. The builder no longer works for his customers but for the market.

Karl Marx
The world will be for the common people, and the sounds of Happiness will reach even the deepest springs.
Karl Marx
There must be something rotten in the very core of a social system which increases its wealth without diminishing its misery
Karl Marx
When the labourer co-operates systematically with others, he strips off the fetters of his individuality, and develops the capabilities of his species.
Karl Marx
It is a bad thing to perform menial duties even for the sake of freedom to fight with pinpricks, instead of with clubs. I have become tired of hypocrisy, stupidity, gross arbitrariness, and of our bowing and scraping, dodging, and hair-splitting over words. Consequently, the government has given me back my freedom.
Karl Marx
Political economy regards the proletarian like a horse, he must receive enough to enable him to work. It does not consider him, during the time when he is not working, as a human being. It leaves this to criminal law, doctors, religion, statistical tables, politics, and the beadle.
Karl Marx
History does nothing, possesses no enormous wealth, fights no battles. It is rather man, the real, living man, who does everything, possesses, fights. It is not History, as if she were a person apart, who uses men as a means to work out her purposes, but history itself is nothing but the activity of men pursuing their purposes.
Karl Marx
By the aristocracy of finance must here be understood not merely the great loan promoters and speculators in public funds, in regard to whom it is immediately obvious that their interests coincide with the interests of the state power. All modern finance, the whole of the banking business, is interwoven in the closest fashion with public credit.
Karl Marx
Only in community with others has each individual the means of cultivating his gifts in all directions only in the community, therefore, is personal freedom possible.
Karl Marx
