While the miser is merely a capitalist gone mad, the capitalist is a rational miser.

Money is the alienated essence of man's work and existence; this essence dominates him and he worships it.

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.

Catch a man a fish, and you can sell it to him. Teach a man to fish, and you ruin a wonderful business opportunity.

History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.
