The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest [take away] all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralise all instruments of production in the hands of the State.

Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.
