Text Quotes
You will have to go through 15, 20, 50 years of civil wars and national struggles not only to bring about a change in society but also to change yourselves, and prepare yourselves for the exercise of political power  (Karl Marx Quotes) 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 Quotes) The bureaucracy is a circle from which no one can escape. Its hierarchy is a hierarchy of knowledge  (Karl Marx Quotes) Men can see nothing around them that is not their own image; everything speaks to them of themselves. Their very landscape is alive  (Karl Marx Quotes) It’s possible that I shall make an ass of myself. But in that case one can always get out of it with a little dialectic. I have, of course, so worded my proposition as to be right either way  (Karl Marx Quotes) We know that violent measures against religion are nonsense; but this is an opinion: as socialism grows, religion will disappear. Its disappearance must be done by social development, in which education must play a part  (Karl Marx Quotes) We have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make excuses for the terror  (Karl Marx Quotes) In every stockjobbing swindle every one knows that some time or other the crash must come, but every one hopes that it may fall on the head of his neighbor, after he himself has caught the shower of gold and placed it in safety  (Karl Marx Quotes) 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 Quotes) It would perhaps be as well if things were to remain quiet for a few years yet, so that all this 1848 democracy has time to rot away  (Karl Marx Quotes) 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 Quotes) Even an entire society, a nation, or all simultaneously existing societies taken together, are not owners of the earth. They are simply its possessors, its beneficiaries, and have to bequeath it in an improved state to succeeding generations  (Karl Marx Quotes) In a word, the free trade system hastens the social revolution. It is in this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, that I vote in favor of free trade  (Karl Marx Quotes) Scientific truth is always paradox, if judged by everyday experience, which catches only the delusive appearance of things  (Karl Marx Quotes) Although gold and silver are not by nature money, money is by nature gold and silver  (Karl Marx Quotes) The need of a constantly expanding market for its products chases the bourgeoisie over the entire surface of the globe  (Karl Marx Quotes) Accumulation of wealth at one pole is at the same time accumulation of misery, agony of toil, slavery, ignorance, brutality, mental degradation, at the opposite pole  (Karl Marx Quotes) In the eyes of dialectical philosophy, nothing is established for all times, nothing is absolute or sacred  (Karl Marx Quotes) Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary  (Karl Marx Quotes) There are no circumstances imaginable, not even victory, under which the proletariat should give up its possession of arms  (Karl Marx Quotes) Social reforms are never carried out by the weakness of the strong; but always by the strength of the weak  (Karl Marx Quotes) History calls those men the greatest who have ennobled themselves by working for the common good; experience acclaims as happiest the man who has made the greatest number of people happy  (Karl Marx Quotes) All forms of the state have democracy for their truth, and for that reason are false to the extent that they are not democracy  (Karl Marx Quotes) The state is based on this contradiction. It is based on the contradiction between public and private life, between universal and particular interests. For this reason, the state must confine itself to formal, negative activities  (Karl Marx Quotes) Just as the savage must wrestle with nature to satisfy his wants, to maintain and reproduce life, so must civilised man, and he must do so in all social formations and under all possible modes of production  (Karl Marx Quotes) Society is undergoing a silent revolution, which must be submitted to, and which takes no more notice of the human existences it breaks down than an earthquake regards the houses it subverts. The classes and the races, too weak to master the new conditions of life, must give way  (Karl Marx Quotes) Men make their own history, but they do not make it just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly encountered, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living  (Karl Marx Quotes) As in private life one differentiates between what a man thinks and says of himself and what he really is and does, so in historical struggles one must still more distinguish the language and the imaginary aspirations of parties from their real organism and their real interests, their conception of themselves from their reality  (Karl Marx Quotes) 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 Quotes) In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic  (Karl Marx Quotes)
