Engels records in the colleted correspondence that Marx used to say, in response to over-eager protestations of 'Marxism', that 'all I can say is that I am glad I am not a Marxist'. That's from memory, but the collected correspondence edited by Dona Torr contains the letter, after Marx's death. -- Jim heartfield
