Summary

This quote, attributed to Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in the Communist Manifesto, succinctly captures the essence of communist theory. The authors state that the goal of communism is to eliminate private ownership of property. Under this ideology, all property would be collectively owned and controlled by the community as a whole. Proponents argue that this would lead to greater equality and the eradication of social and economic disparities. However, critics assert that the abolition of private property would infringe upon individual rights and inhibit personal freedoms.

The Queen of Crafts herself, Martha Stewart, and I have the same birthday. I prefer to think it's the glue-gun wielding, perfect-tart-producing Martha and not the copper pan-throwing, jail-going Martha. But I suppose if I am going to share a calendar square with some of Martha, I have to share it with all of Martha.

A man at work, making something which he feels will exist because he is working at it and wills it, is exercising the energies of his mind and soul as well as of his body. Memory and imagination help him as he works. Not only his own thoughts, but the thoughts of the men of past ages guide his hands; and, as part of the human race, he creates. If we work thus we shall be men, and our days will be happy and eventful.
