NOTE What is your favorite quotation on Marx?

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.800
To conclude with Ray, Marx's value theory, to witness von Bawerk or Mr. Joseph, H.W.B.

2
00:00:07.800 --> 00:00:12.500
Joseph wrote a book on labor theory, value, and Marx, to witness von Bawerk or Joseph

3
00:00:12.500 --> 00:00:17.880
carving up Marx is but a pedestrian pleasure. For these are both pedestrian writers who

4
00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:21.720
are so pedestrian as to clutch at the plain meaning of words, not realizing that what

5
00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:29.600
Marx really meant, Cole, has no necessary connection with what Marx undeniably said.

6
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:34.200
To witness Marx surrounded by his friends is, however, a joy of an entirely different order.

7
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.960
For it's really clear that none of them really knows what Marx really meant.

8
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.840
And even a considerable doubt as to what he was talking about,

9
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:45.280
there were hints that Marx himself did not know what he was doing.

10
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.280
In particular, there's no one to tell us what Marx thought he meant by value.
