More quotes by Karl Marx

Karl Marx

Karl Marx
The only antidote to mental suffering is physical pain.
Karl Marx
A man cannot become a child again, or he becomes childish.
Karl Marx
Hitherto, every form of society has been based ... on the antagonism of oppressing and oppressed classes.
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
In the national struggles of the proletarians of the different countries, they point out and bring to the front the common interest of the entire proletariat, independently of all nationality.
