“The Marxist method is to accentuate the class struggle, organize it, and carry it forward…in full consciousness of the ruthlessness of the forces at play, to the goal of a revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat.” ~Max Eastman
“The German state patronized modern capitalism, perverting it to the support of feudal political institutions; and the German philosophers patronized modern science, perverting it to the support of animistic superstition.” ~Max Eastman
“The institution of private property is one of the main things that have given man that limited amount of free and equalness that Marx hoped to render infinite.” ~Max Eastman
“If the socialist hypothesis were valid in general, some tiny shred of the benefits promised by it would have appeared when the Russian capitalists were expropriated and production taken over by the state…” ~Max Eastman
“In Das Kapital…the force which guarantees the evolution of capitalism to the point of rupture, and the creation of a communist state, is that same…which Hegel laid on the whole Universe in the name of God.”
~Max Eastman
