Clara Zetkin quotes
" As a consequence of their low wages, the women are transformed from mere competitors into unfair competitors who push down the wages of men. "

Clara Zetkin
" Bourgeois society is not fundamentally opposed to the bourgeois women's movement, which is proven by the fact that in various states reforms of private and public laws concerning women have been initiated. "

Clara Zetkin
" Cheap women's labour eliminates the work of men and if the men want to continue to earn their daily bread, they must put up with low wages. "

Clara Zetkin
" During the years 1892 until 1895, the number of female laborers organized in central trade unions grew to around 7,000. "

Clara Zetkin
" Each reform, therefore, improving the economical and political situation of the workers proves to be an arm that increases the energy with which the proletarian struggle of classes is fought. "

Clara Zetkin
" For reforms ameliorate the situation of the working class, they lighten the weight of the chains labour is burdened with by capitalism, but they are not sufficient to crush capitalism and to emancipate the workers from their tyranny. "

Clara Zetkin
" Given the fact that many thousands of female workers are active in history, it is vital for the trade unions to incorporate them into their movement. "

Clara Zetkin
" In individual industries where female labour pays an important role, any movement advocating better wages, shorter working hours, etc., would not be doomed from the start because of the attitude of those women workers who are not organized. "

Clara Zetkin
" In Rosa Luxemburg the socialist idea was a dominating and powerful passion of both mind and heart, a consuming and creative passion. "

Clara Zetkin
" In the interests of their profits, they have fanned the hatred among the people, this contributing to the outbreak of the war. "

Clara Zetkin
" In the same manner the capitalists use child labour to depress women's wages and the work of machines to depress all human labour. "

Clara Zetkin
" It is not just the women workers who suffer because of the miserable payment of their labour. The male workers, too, suffer because of it. "

Clara Zetkin
" Our guiding thought must be: We must not conduct special women's propaganda, but Socialist agitation among women. "

Clara Zetkin
" Social Democracy bears the main guilt and responsibility for this phenomenon before the International and history. "

Clara Zetkin
" Social Democratic and trade union organs have approved of the illegal invasion of Belgium, of the massacre of suspected guerrillas, as well as their wives and children, as well as the destruction of their homes in various towns and districts. "
