All history is nothing but a continuous transformation of human nature.
Karl Marx

Karl Marx

Karl Marx
Image
Change the economic base and you will change human beings.
Karl Marx
Image
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
Image
The working class is revolutionary or it is nothing.
