Marx's Grave
Robyn and I went to Marx's grave in a cool old cemetery that was like a forest in some places. It took a long time to get there because some of the subway was closed, but we made it eventually. His grave is the biggest in the graveyard, and says on the top "workers of all lands unite" and at the bottom "The philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways. The point however is to change it". Pretty cool quote! Sometime I want to head to the British Library (it's very close) and Robyn says we can read his original manuscripts. I guess he and Lenin worked in that library, so cool!

That's pretty cool stuff. I was told or taught at a very early age that Marx was a frequent visitor to the British library and often stayed there for days and days absorbing knowledge... Yeah thats right, the Library is like only 5 mins walk from your residence. Go there often, and you might become another Marx!
i wasn't clear when you guys told me about the grave, i didn't know it was Marx's grave! I definitely want to go as well...And British Library!
