In place of the old bourgeois society, with its classes and class antagonisms, we shall have an association in which the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all.

More quotes by Karl Marx
There are, besides, eternal truths, such as Freedom, , etc., that are common to all states of society. But Communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.
Karl Marx
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
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
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
We know that violent measures against religion are nonsense but this is an opinion: as socialism grows, religion will disappear. Its disappearance must be done by social development, in which education must play a part.
Karl Marx
The working men have no country. We cannot take away from them what they have not got
Karl Marx
If production be capitalistic in form, so, too, will be reproduction.
Karl Marx
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
While the miser is merely a capitalist gone mad, the capitalist is a rational miser.
Karl Marx
The social revolution...cannot draw its poetry from the past, but only from the future. It cannot begin with itself before it has stripped itself of all superstitions concerning the past.
Karl Marx
Nothing has changed in Russias policy. Her methods, her tactics, her maneuvers may change, but the pole starworld dominationis immutable.
Karl Marx
The religious world is but a reflex of the real world.
Karl Marx
Taxes are the source of life for the bureaucracy, the army and the court, in short, for the whole apparatus of the executive power. Strong government and heavy taxes are identical.
Karl Marx
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
The worker puts his life into the object but now it no longer belongs to him, it belongs to the object.
Karl Marx
It would perhaps be as well if things were to remain quiet for a few years yet, so that all this 1848 democracy has time to rot away.
Karl Marx
The redeeming feature of war is that it puts a nation to the test. As exposure to the atmosphere reduces all mummies to instant dissolution, so war passes supreme judgment upon social systems that have outlived their vitality.
Karl Marx
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
The true law of economics is chance, and we learned people arbitrarily seize on a few moments and establish them as laws.
Karl Marx
Landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed.
