[Marxism] Kautsky Quote Needed

[Michael Butt]

Just for fun for a couple hours I also skimmed a copy of Kautsky's, The Class Struggle... No luck there on the exact quote. However, about 10-12 paragraphs into chapt #5 "V. The Class Struggle. 1. Socialism and the Property-Holding Classes." it is kind of implied that some members of the upper classes might have worthwhile (or usable ideas). They are referred to as for the most part a small group of idealists etc., with courage....
