1) “The misery of the worker is in inverse proportion to the power and size of his production” 50
 
 
 

2) The “political economy does not afford us any explanation of the reason for the separation of labour and capital, of capital and land.  When, for example, political economy defines the relationship of wages to profit from capital, the interest of the capitalist is the ultimate court of appeal, that is, it presupposes what be its result” 50
 
 
 
 

3) “The worker becomes poorer the richer is his production” 51
 
 
 
 

4) “For it is evident from this presupposition that the more the worker externalizes himself in his work, the more powerful becomes the alien, objective world that he creates opposite himself, the poorer he becomes himself in his inner life and the less he can call his own.”  51
 
 
 

5) “His labour is therefore not voluntary but compulsory, forced labour.  It is therefore not the satisfaction of a need but only a means to satisfy needs outside itself” 53
 
 
 

6) “Thus it is in the working over of the objective world that man first really affirms himself as a special-being.”  54
 
 
 
 

7) “We have, of course, obtained the concept of externalized labour from political economy as the result of the movement of private property.” 56
