The whole proletariat must be armed at once with muskets, rifles, cannon and ammunition, and the revival of the old-style citizens militia, directed against the workers, must be opposed.

More quotes by Karl Marx
Men make their own history but not in circumstances of their own choosing.
Karl Marx
We should not say that one man's hour is worth another man's hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing: he is at the most time's carcass.
Karl Marx
...the very cannibalism of the counterrevolution will convince the nations that there is only one way in which the murderous death agonies of the old society and the bloody birth throes of the new society can be shortened, simplified and concentrated, and that way is revolutionary terror.
Karl Marx
Social progress can be measured exactly by the social position of the fair sex.
Karl Marx
The proletarians have nothing to loose but their chains. They have a world to win.
Karl Marx
For the bureaucrat, the world is a mere object to be manipulated by him.
Karl Marx
The more powerful the work, the more powerless the worker.
Karl Marx
Work is external to the worker. . . . It is not part of his nature consequently he does not fulfill himself in his work but denies himself. . . . The worker therefore feels himself at home only during his leisure time, whereas at work he feels homeless.
Karl Marx
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
Scientific truth is always paradox, if judged by everyday experience, which catches only the delusive appearance of things.
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
Every one knows that there are no real forests in England.The deer in the parks of the great are demurely domestic cattle, fat as London alderman.
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
But, you will say, we destroy the most hallowed of relations, when we replace home education by social.... The Communists have not invented the intervention of society in education they do but seek to alter the character of that intervention, and to rescue education from the influence of the ruling class.
Karl Marx
Let the ruling classes tremble at a communist revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Workingmen of all countries, unite!
Karl Marx
In capitalist society spare time is acquired for one class by converting the whole life-time of the masses into labour-time.
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
I am greatly pleased with the public, authentic isolation in which we two, you and I, now find ourselves. It is wholly in accord with our attitude and our principles.
Karl Marx
Men can see nothing around them that is not their own image everything speaks to them of themselves. Their very landscape is alive.
Karl Marx
The circulation of capital realizes value , while living labour creates value .
