The consciousness of the past...

The consciousness of the past weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

It has drowned the most heave...

It has drowned the most heavenly ecstasies of religious fervour, of chivalrous enthusiasm, of Philistine sentimentalism, in the icy water of egotistical calculation. It has resolved personal worth into exchange value, and in place of numberless indefeasible chartered freedoms, it has set up that single, unconscionable freedom -- free trade. In one word, for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, it has substituted naked, shameless, direct, brutal exploitation.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

The executive of the modern state is but a committee for managing the common affairs of the whole bourgeoisie.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

There is only one effective antidote for mental suffering and that is physical pain.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Language is as old as conscio...

Language is as old as consciousness, language is practical, real consciousness that exists for other men as well, and only therefore does it also exist for me; language, like consciousness, only arises from the need, the necessity, of intercourse with other men.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Wherever the want of clothing...

Wherever the want of clothing forced them to it, the human race made clothes for thousands of years, without a single man becoming a tailor.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Society is undergoing a silen...

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 444 quotes

Hegel remarks somewhere that ...

Hegel remarks somewhere that all great, world-historical facts and personages occur, as it were, twice. He has forgotten to add: the first time as tragedy, the second as farce.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Religious distress is at the ...

Religious distress is at the same time the expression of the real distress and also the protest against real distress. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of the spiritless condition. It is the opium of the people.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Is a fixed income not a good ...

Is a fixed income not a good thing? Does not everyone love to count on a sure thing? Especially every petty-bourgeois, narrow-minded Frenchman? the 'ever needy' man?

Karl Marx 444 quotes

From the outset, the Christian was the theorizing Jew, the Jew is therefore the practical Christian, and the practical Christian has become a Jew again.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

In capitalist society spare time is acquired for one class by converting the whole life-time of the masses into labour-time.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Bourgeois society ought long ...

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 444 quotes

Constant labor of one uniform...

Constant labor of one uniform kind destroys the intensity and flow of a man's animal spirits, which find recreation and delight in mere change of activity.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

The monopoly of capital becom...

The monopoly of capital becomes a fetter upon the mode of production, which has sprung up and flourished along with, and under it. Centralisation of the means of production and socialisation of labour at last reach a point where they become incompatible with there capitalist integument. This integument is burst asunder. The knell of capitalist private property sounds. The expropriators are expropriated.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Although usury is itself a fo...

Although usury is itself a form of credit in its bourgeoisified form, the form adapted to capital , in its pre-bourgeois form it is rather the expression of the lack of credit .

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Wages are determined by the bitter struggle between capitalist and worker.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

In proportion as the bourgeoi...

In proportion as the bourgeoisie, i.e., capital, is developed, in the same proportion is the proletariat, the modern working class, developed - a class of labourers, who live only so long as they find work, and who find work only so long as their labour increases capital. These labourers, who must sell themselves piecemeal, are a commodity, like every other article of commerce, and are consequently exposed to all the vicissitudes of competition, to all the fluctuations of the market.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

Each piece of money is a mere coin, or means of circulation, only so long as it actually circulates.

Karl Marx 444 quotes

The working class is revolutionary or it is nothing.
