Socialism is a fraud, a comedy, a phantom, a blackmail.
The God of the theologians is the creation of their empty heads.
Journalism is not a profession, but a mission.
The working people are bound to their native shoes.
Better to live a day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep
The League is very well when sparrows shout, but no good at all when eagles fall out.
Tomorrow, the Tripartite Pact will become an instrument of just peace between the peoples. Italians! Once more arise and be worthy of this historical hour! We shall win.
There is the great, silent, continuous struggle: the struggle between the State and the Individual; between the State which demands and the individual who attempts to evade such demands. Because the individual, left to himself, unless he be a saint or hero, always refuses to pay taxes, obey laws, or go to war.
Three cheers for war, noble and beautiful above all.
What is liberty? There is no such thing as absolute liberty!
Against individualism, the Fascist conception is for the State ... Liberalism denied the State in the interests of the particular individual; Fascism reaffirms the State as the true reality of the individual.
Thirty centuries of history allow us to look with supreme pity on certain doctrines which are preached beyond the Alps by the descendants of those who were illiterate when Rome had Caesar, Virgil, and Augustus.
The Liberal State is a mask behind which there is no face; it is a scaffolding behind which there is no building.
If relativism signifies contempt for fixed categories and those who claim to be the bearers of objective immortal truth, then there is nothing more relativistic than Fascist attitudes and activity. From the fact that all ideologies are of equal value, we Fascists conclude that we have the right to create our own ideology and to enforce it with all the energy of which we are capable.
