Marx, Karl Heinrich

All revolutions so far have only proven one thing, namely that many things can be changed, just not the people

Work is the fire of design

Laborers who have to sell themselves piecemeal are a commodity like any other article of commerce, and are therefore equally exposed to all fluctuations of the market

Money is the general, self-constituted value of all things

The realm of freedom only begins where work, which is determined by necessity and external expediency, ends

the Manifesto is a historical document that we no longer claim the right to change

Man makes religion, religion does not make man

The only source of surplus value is living labor

The history of all previous society is the history of class struggles

The philosophers have only interpreted the world differently, but the point is to change it

Religion is the sigh of the afflicted creature, the mind of a heartless world, as is the spirit of mindless conditions. She is the opium of the people

The censored press, with its hypocrisy, its lack of character, its eunuch language, its canine tail wagging, is a civilized monster, a perfumed freak

A specter is haunting Europe - the specter of communism

Proletarians of all countries, unite!

Being radical is getting to the root of the matter
