But capital not only lives upon labour. Like a master, at once distinguished and barbarous, it drags with it into its grave the corpses of its slaves, whole hecatombs of workers, who perish in the crises.

"Revolutions are the locomotives of history."

Karl Marx

"Capital is dead labor that vampirelike lives only by sucking living labor and lives the more the more labor it suck."

Karl Marx

"Capitalist production, therefore, develops technology, and the combining together of various processes into a social whole, only by sapping the original sources of all wealth - the soil and the labourer."

Karl Marx
