Stranica 14 - The immediate aim of the Communists is the same as that of all the other proletarian parties — formation of the proletariat into a class, overthrow of the bourgeois supremacy, conquest of political power by the proletariat.
Stranica 15 - The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degrees, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the State, ie, of the proletariat organized as the ruling class; and to increase the total of productive forces as rapidly as possible.
