Famous quotes containing the words laura and/or marx:

    The books may say that nine-month-olds crawl, say their first words, and are afraid of strangers. Your exuberantly concrete and special nine-month-old hasn’t read them. She may be walking already, not saying a word and smiling gleefully at every stranger she sees. . . . You can support her best by helping her learn what she’s trying to learn, not what the books say a typical child ought to be learning.
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)

    The English have all the material requisites for the revolution. What they lack is the spirit of generalization and revolutionary ardour.
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)
