“Capital has been made for man, and not man for Capital.”

“Capitalism is the exploitation of man by man. Yes? Well socialism is exactly the reverse.”

“Under capitalism, man exploits man; while under socialism just the reverse is true.”

“I think it is only because capitalism has proved so enormously more efficient than alternative methods that it has survived at all. (…) I'm not sure capitalism is the right word. There is a sense in which every society is capitalist. The Soviet Union was capitalist, but it was state capitalism. Latin American societies in the past have been capitalist, but it has been oligarchic capitalism. So what we really need to talk about is not capitalism but free market or competitive capitalism which is the system that we would like to have adopted, not just capitalism.”

“Only proto-capitalism has ever been critiqued.”

“Communism was the regime for the privileged elite, capitalism the creed for the common man.”

“We are capitalism made flesh.”

“The primary capital to be safeguarded and valued is man, the human person in his or her integrity”

“Imperialism is capitalism in that stage of development in which the domination of monopolies and finance capital has established itself; in which the export of capital has acquired pronounced importance; in which the division of the world among the international trusts has begun; in which the partition of all the territories of the globe among the great capitalist powers has been completed.”

“Capitalism place money at the centre of everything. While Socialism make the man at the centre of the universe.”
