their same very quotable pices in Marx wages and labour such as...

In the future life of the peoples, however, the inanimate forces of nature working in machines will be our slaves and serfs. (op. cit.)

Labour is life, and if life is not each day exchanged for food, it suffers and soon perishes. To claim that human life is a commodity, one must, therefore, admit slavery. (op. cit.)

but those littile signs at the bottom i dont know what they mean or who they refer too.

so who is he quoteing?
