More quotes by Karl Marx
A specter is haunting Europe - the specter of communism.
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 class struggle necessarily leads to the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Karl Marx
So in Jewry we recognise a contemporary universal anti-social phenomenon, which has reached its present pitch through a process of, historical development in which the Jews have zealously co-operated. And this evil anti-social aspect of Jewry has grown to a stage at which: it must necessarily collapse.
Karl Marx
On a level plain, simple mounds look like hills and the insipid flatness of our present bourgeoisie is to be measured by the altitude of its great intellects.
Karl Marx
All our inventions have endowed material forces with intellectual life, and degraded human life into a material force.
Karl Marx
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.
Karl Marx
The wealthy man is the man whois much, not the one who has much
Karl Marx
As the chosen people bore in their features the sign manual of Jehovah , so the division of labour brands the manufacturing workman as the property of capital .
Karl Marx
Art is always and everywhere the secret confession, and at the same time the immortal movement of its time.
Karl Marx
Mankind always sets itself only such tasks as it can solve since, looking at the matter more closely, we will always find that the task itself arises only when the material conditions necessary for its solution already exist or are at least in the process of formation.
Karl Marx
The more powerful the work, the more powerless the worker.
Karl Marx
The human being is in the most literal sense a political animal, not merely a gregarious animal, but an animal which can individuate itself only in the midst of society.
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
Perseus wore a magic cap that the monsters he hunted down might not see him. We draw the magic cap down over eyes and ears as a make-believe that there are no monsters.
Karl Marx
Communism deprives no man of the ability to appropriate the fruits of his labour. The only thing it deprives him of is the ability to enslave others by means of such appropriations.
Karl Marx
The rule of the bourgeois democrats [in pre-federal Germany], from the very first, will carry within it the seeds of its own destruction
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
Advances in science help to delegitimize the rule of kings and the power of the Church.
Karl Marx
The unity of the bourgeoisie can be shaken only by the unity of the proletariat.
Karl Marx
