All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opnions, are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiqueated before they can ossify: All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and men at last are forced to face...the real conditions of their lives and their relations with their fellow men.

Communist Manifesto, KARL MARX (1818-1843)
