A Little Book of Quotes from Karl Marx

This book presents a collection of over 350 quotes from Karl Marx - as well as from his friend and collaborator, Frederick Engels - drawing on such major works as 'The Communist Manifesto' (1848), 'Capital' (1867), 'The Poverty of Philosophy' (1847), and 'Critique of the Gotha Programme' (1875). Additionally, a range of newspaper articles, personal correspondence, pamphlets and other manuscripts have been sourced. As editor and translator, Simon Blackburn has selected quotations from several 'disciplinary' fields - including economics and politics (or, more traditionally, 'political economy') as well as sociology, criminology, social policy, psychology, philosophy, anthropology, history, even mathematics. And these writings often extend beyond such disciplines, to include juvenilia, poetry and love letters. Simon Blackburn also provides a useful introduction that explains the aims and scope of the book, while offering a short biographical sketch on the life and thought of both Marx and Engels. Whether one agrees or disagrees with the ideas of these authors, this book shows that Marx and Engels said some amazing things
