Karl Marx Quote Of The Day

From the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844, in the chapter titled "The Power of Money":

"If money is the bond binding me to human life, binding society to me, connecting me with nature and man, is not money the bond of all bonds? Can it not dissolve and bind all ties? Is it not, therefore, also the universal agent of separation? It is the coin that really separates as well as the real binding agent – the alchemical power of society."
