Last sentence of the opening paragraph of "The Part Played by Labour in the Transition from Ape to Man" (1876) by
Friedrich Engels (1820–1895), first published in German in Die Neue Zeit in 1895, and in English by Progress Publishers, Moscow in 1934, and also included in
Dialectics of Nature (written in 1883 and first published in Russian and German in the USSR in 1925), Chapter IX
"Labour is the source of all wealth, the political economists assert. And it really is the source — next to nature, which supplies it with the material that it converts into wealth. But it is even infinitely more than this. It is the prime basic condition for all human existence, and this to such an extent that, in a sense, we have to say that labour created man himself."

James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix (1942–1970), interview with
Dick Cavett,
The Dick Cavett Show (1969).
Dick Cavett: "Do you think music has a meaning?"
Jimi Hendrix: "Oh yeah, definitely. It's getting to be more spiritual, so, than anything. Pretty soon, I believe, that we're going to have to rely on music to, uh like, get some kind of peace of mind or satisfaction, or direction actually. More so than politics. Because politics is really an ego scene. That's the way I look at it anyway. It's all a big fat ego scene, for instance."
DC: "Ego scene?"
Jimi: "Well yeah. It's the art of words, which means nothing. So therefore you have to rely on a more of a earthier substance like music or the arts, theater, acting, painting, whatever. We want our sound to go into the soul of the audience, and see if it can awaken some little thing in their minds... Cause there are so many sleeping people. ... I wouldn't say that I'm the greatest guitarist ever. I'd say probably that I'm the greatest guitarist sitting in this chair. ... I don't really live on compliments. As a matter of fact, they have a way of distracting me. I know a whole lot of musicians, artists out there who hears the compliments and thinks 'wow, I must have been really great' and so they get fat and satisfied and they get lost and forget about their actual talent and start living in another world."

Then the crowd erupts into a standing ovation. – pjoef ( talk • contribs) 10:50, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
