Religion is the opium of the masses.
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
Image

Karl Marx
Image
The more of himself man attributes to God, the less he has left in himself.
Karl Marx
Image
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
Image
With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the fact of the world and see the collapse of this pygmy giant. Then will I wander god-like and victorious through the ruins of the world. And giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to the Creator.
Karl Marx
Image
Change the economic base and you will change human beings.
Karl Marx
Image
Be aware that the reward for labour, and quantity of labour, are quite disparate things.
Karl Marx
Image
Capital brings forth living offspring, or at the least, lays the golden eggs.
Karl Marx
