Communist Party Members

Famous quotes containing the words communist, party and/or members:

    “In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    “There was an old party of Lyme
    Who married three wives at one time.”
    —Edward Lear (1812–1888)
