What a pathetic bourgeoisie that needs to resort to such things to survive! But we aren't surprised. It's a war with us and of course it defends itself. It torments, exiles, and murders. After all, nothing dies without at least throwing a punch. Beasts and men are similar in this. It's unfortunate that its blows cause victims, especially when it is our brothers who fall, but it's unavoidable and we have to access the burden. Let us hope that the bourgeoisie's death throes will be brief.

And envy leads to attempts to rectify any advantage the other player has attained. In this form of Prisoner's Dilemma, rectification of the other's advantage can only be done by defection. But defection leads to more defection and to mutual punishment. So envy is self-destructive.

...isn't ours a war to the death against the bourgeoisie?
• 4
In order to avoid complete annihilation or to make any headway at all, the working class must completely change its attitude in the class struggle against the masters.
• 5
In North America the workers behold a great mass of laws, old and new, which they have been carefully taught to respect and obey. These laws were made by the political and legal servants of the masters. They were created for the purpose of protecting property which existed long before the law gave the owners a "right" to it. Yet all the rights which the capitalists claim are based on these laws. As soon as the workers determine to abolish them, or ignore them, the capitalists' "right" to what the workers have produced will cease to exist.

...King George will not stay killed until it is finally settled in all industry as well as in the industry of government that no human being has a right to share in the product of another’s life and labor without his consent, and that there is no consent where there is not a perfect understanding and as perfect freedom to say No, as to say Yes, as perfect freedom to withhold as to give.
• 7
It is evident that this [Capitalist] system, if to be destroyed at all, must be attacked by the workers themselves, as we cannot expect those who profit by it to cut their own throats, so to say.
• 8
...social problems can only be resolved by a revolutionary movement that transforms the economy while at the same time destroying bourgeois political institutions.
• 9
...liberal capitalism is obviously coming to an end...
• 10
Almost everyone nowadays, even the majority of Catholics and Conservatives, is "progressive." Or at least wishes to be thought so. No one, so far as I know, ever describes himself as a "bourgeois."
• 11
...the working class understands its place and its call in and for the transformation of society which has already begun, and in the consciousness of its duty seeks in a worthy way fill the high reformatory task, which is the same as presented in the struggle for a brighter and better future not for this or that individual, not for this or that nationality, but for all of mankind.
• 12
We believe that the cooperative millennium cannot be reached till Capitalism is overthrown by the workers. Yet we know the impatience which many an earnest reformer feels with the slow growth of the proletarian movement.
• 13
...the goal of the working class is the complete extermination of capitalism.
• 14
...be assured that you have spoken to these robbers in the only language which they have ever been able to understand, for they have never yet deigned to notice any petition from their slaves that they were not compelled to read by the red glare bursting from the cannon's mouths, or that was not handed to them upon the point of the sword.
• 15
I found myself wondering whose side Paine would have taken. I was sure he would have joined our Vietcong enemies.
• 16
It is not those who speak frankly on all occasions who are the poor servants of socialism, but rather those who want to transform into a silent convent a great party of proletarian democracy open to all ideas, and with everyone in place for the decisive class combat.
• 17
If working women acted on their feelings, there would doubtless be no capitalist class holding sway to-day.
• 18
...not until wage slavery is abolished can either woman's or man's freedom be fully attained.
• 19
Enjoy, then you are entitled to enjoyment. But, if you have labored and let the enjoyment be taken from you, then -- "it serves you right."

Wherever I have gone, I have seen unfortunates bent beneath the yoke of capital. Everywhere I have seen the same wounds causing tears of blood to flow, even in the remoter parts of the inhabited districts of South America, where I had the right to believe that he who was weary of the pains of civilization might rest in the shade of the palm trees and there study nature. Well, there even, more than elsewhere, I have seen capital come, like a vampire, to suck the last drop of blood of the unfortunate pariahs.
Then I came back to France, where it was reserved for me to see my family suffer atrociously. This was the last drop in the cup of my sorrow. Tired of leading this life of suffering and cowardice, I carried this bomb to those who are primarily responsible for social misery.
