Tao Te Ching

“Religion is but the false sun that revolves around those who are not fully aware… it is the sigh of the oppressed, the kindliness of a heartless world, the soul of soulless circumstance, the opiate of the people.”

— Karl Marx 1818 – 1883 CE via Shan Dao, et alia
from Introduction to a Critique of Hegel’s Philosophy of Law
