Dungeon/history

Famous quotes containing the words dungeon and/or history:

“O who shall from this dungeon raise
A soul enslaved so many ways?
With bolts of bones, that fettered stands
In feet; and manacled in hands:
Here blinded with an eye; and there
Deaf with the drumming of an ear;
A soul hung up, as ‘twere, in chains
Of nerves, and arteries, and veins;”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
