End of the List of Proverbs

********************

* "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles."
KARL MAX
* "A spectre is haunting Europe; the spectre of Communism."
KARL MAX
* "What the bourgeoisie therefore produces, above all, are its own grave-diggers. Its
fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable."
KARL MAX
* "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 MAX
* "But every class struggle is a political struggle."
KARL MAX
* "Law, morality, religion, are to him so many bourgeois prejudices, behind which lurk in
ambush just as many bourgeois interests."
KARL MAX
* "All that we want to do away with is the miserable character of this appropriation,
under which the labourer lives merely to increase capital, and allowed to live only so far as
the interest to the ruling class requires it."
KARL MAX
* "When people speak of ideas that revolutionize society, they do but express the fact
that within the old society, the elements of a new one have been created."
KARL MAX
* "The Communist revolution is the most radical rupture with traditional property
relations; no wonder that its development involves the most radical rupture with traditional
ideas."
KARL MAX
* "The working men have no country. We cannot take away from them what they have
not got."
KARL MAX
* "Of all the classes that stand face to face with the bourgeoisie today, the proletariat
alone is a really revolutionary class."
KARL MAX
* "No sooner is the exploitation of the labourer by the manufacturer, so far, at an end,
that he receives his wages in cash, than he is set upon by the other portions of the
bourgeoisie, the landlord, the shopkeeper, the pawnbroker, etc."
KARL MAX
* "In place of the bourgeois society, with its classes and class antagonisms, shall we
have an association, in which the free development of each is the condition for the free
development of all."
KARL MAX
* "A class of labourers, who live only so long as they find work, and who find work only
so long as their labour increase 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 MAX
* "He becomes an appendage of the machine, and it is only the most simple, most
monotonous, and most easily acquired knack, that is required of him. Hence, the cost of
production of a workman is restricted, almost entirely, to the means of subsistence that
he requires for his maintenance."
KARL MAX
