t just hit me that only ten people attended the funeral of Karl Marx –yet most of them (particularly Engels) believed (even ”’knew”’, according to the record) that he had been the greatest living thinker. That was 130 years ago. He has yet to be surpassed.
ALAS MARX COULD BE VERY ARROGANT AND RUDE TO PEOPLE , HE ESTRANGED MANY PEOPLE OVER HIS THREE DECADES IN LONDON, THIS WAS WHY SO FEW ATTENDED.
