"Travailleurs du monde, unissez-vous ; vous n'avez rien à perdre que vos chaînes."
— Karl Marx

Simplified Meaning:
This quote is encouraging people who work hard for a living to come together and support each other. It tells them they don't have much to lose because their difficult situation can only get better. Imagine factory workers who are paid very little and treated unfairly. If they band together and demand better pay and conditions, they might improve their lives. Right now, they are like prisoners tied down by chains, and those chains are their poor working conditions and low wages. By uniting, they can break free from these "chains" and create a better future for themselves.
