Image
To be radical is to grasp things by the root.
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
One of the most difficult tasks confronting philosophers is to descend from the world of thought to the actual world.
Karl Marx
Image
But there is a devil of a difference between barbarians who are fit by nature to be used for anything, and civilized people who apply them selves to everything.
Karl Marx
Image
The education of all children, from the moment that they can get along without a mother's care, shall be in state institutions.
Karl Marx
Image
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
Image
There are, besides, eternal truths, such as Freedom, , etc., that are common to all states of society. But Communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.
Karl Marx
Image
The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley of ties that bound man to his natural superiors, and left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous cash payment.
Karl Marx
Image
I pre-suppose, of course, a reader who is willing to learn something new and therefore to think for himself.
Karl Marx
Image
To destroy Christianity, we must first destroy the British Empire.
Karl Marx
Image
The capitalist cannot store labour-power in warehouses after he has bought it, as he may do with the raw material.
Karl Marx
Image
In the United States of North America, every independent movement of the workers was paralysed so long as slavery disfigured a part of the Republic. Labour cannot emancipate itself in the white skin where in the black it is branded.
Karl Marx
Image
Free education for all children in public schools... Combination of education with industrial production
Karl Marx
Image
The task is not just to understand the world but to change it.
Karl Marx
Image
Capital brings forth living offspring, or at the least, lays the golden eggs.
Karl Marx
Image
If this labourer were in possession of his own means of production, and was satisfied to live as a labourer, he need not work beyond beyond the time necessary for the reproduction of his means of subsistence, say 8 hours a day.
Karl Marx
Image
The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They open declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. WORKING MEN OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE!
Karl Marx
Image
History does nothing, possesses no enormous wealth, fights no battles. It is rather man, the real, living man, who does everything, possesses, fights. It is not History, as if she were a person apart, who uses men as a means to work out her purposes, but history itself is nothing but the activity of men pursuing their purposes.
Karl Marx
Image
The circulation of capital realizes value , while living labour creates value .
Karl Marx
Image
Society is a sort of organism on the growth of which conscious efforts can exercise little effect.
