God, or rather the fiction of God, is thus the sanction and the intellectual and moral cause of all the slavery on earth, and the liberty of men will not be complete, unless it will have completely annihilated the inauspicious fiction of a heavenly master.

Mr. Marx does not believe in God, but he believes deeply in himself. His heart is filled not with love but with rancor.

The privileged man, whether he be privileged politically or economically, is a man depraved in intellect and heart.
