“The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley of ties that bound man to his "natural superiors," and left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous "cash payment.” MenEndsSelfHandsLeftInterestNaturalRelationBoundsSuperiorsNakedTiesCashExploitationTornPaymentSelf InterestBourgeoisieCallousManifestosCommunist ManifestoIdyllicUpper HandNexus Book:Marx: Selected Writings Source: Marx: Selected Writings
“Art that means anything in the life of a community must bear some relation to current interpretations of the mystery of the universe. Our rigid separation of the humanities and the sciences has temporarily left our art stranded or stammering and incoherent. Both art and science ought to be blended in our early education of our children's emotions and powers of observation, and that harmony carried forward in later education.” MeanChildrenArtHumanityUniverseLeftCommunityEmotionMysteryBearsOughtRelationHarmonyOur ChildrenCurrentsSeparationObservationInterpretationArt And ScienceStrandedEarly EducationStammering Author:Dora Russell
“I was generally busy from 7 A.M. until midnight. I never had time to sit and think. As I worked, physical and mental fatigue set in and I was unable to operate to the maximum of my intellectual ability. But in a single cell in prison, I had time to think. I had a clear view of my past and present, and I found that my past left much to be desired, both in regard to my relations with other humans and in developing personal worth.” ThinkingHumansPastFoundLeftAbilityViewsClearIntellectualRelationRegardPrisonBusyCellsDevelopingMidnightMaximumFatigueMy PastTime To ThinkPast And PresentClear ViewPersonal Worth Author:Nelson Mandela
