Slave To Sensation Quotes & Sayings

Under chattel slavery and feudalism, exploitation was concrete and personalized in the producer's relationship with his master. The slave and peasant knew exactly who was screwing them.

You have embarked, made the voyage, and come to shore; get out. If indeed to another life, there is no want of gods, not even there.
