« We are PHILOSOPHICAL contemporaries of the present without being its HISTORICAL contemporaries. »
« The criticism dealing with this matter is criticism in HAND-TO-HAND combat, and in such combat the point is not whether the opponent is noble, equal, or INTERESTING, the point is to STRIKE him. »
« In its struggle against these conditions criticism is not a passion of the head but the head of passion. It is not a lancet, it is a weapon. Its object is an ENEMY it wants not to refute but to DESTROY. For the spirit of these conditions has already been refuted. In and for themselves they are objects not WORTHY OF THOUGHT but EXISTENCES as despicable as they are despised. Criticism itself does not even need to be concerned with this matter, for it is already clear about it. Criticism is no longer an END IN ITSELF but simply a MEANS. »
« The state abolishes distinctions of BIRTH, RANK, EDUCATION, and OCCUPATION in its fashion when it declares them to be NON‐POLITICAL distinctions, when it proclaims that every member of the community EQUALLY participates in popular sovereignty without regard to these distinctions, and when it deals with all elements of the actual life of the nation from the standpoint of the state. Nevertheless the state permits private property, education, and occupation to ACT and manifest their PARTICULAR nature as private property, education, and occupation in their OWN ways. Far from overcoming these FACTUAL distinctions, the state exists only by presupposing them; it is aware of itself as a POLITICAL STATE and makes its UNIVERSALITY effective only in opposition to these elements. »

@aescling my university recommended Karl Marx: Selected Writings ed. Lawrence H. Simon pub. Hackett, which begins with the sentences « Karl Marx is the most influential thinker of the modern period. Indeed, one could go further and claim that, in terms of sheer numbers, Marx’s ideas have had a greater impact on more people than those of anyone else in history, with Jesus, Buddha, and Muhammad his closest rivals. »
