Benito Mussolini
Believe, obey, fight.
Benito Mussolini

Benito Mussolini
I've had my fill of Hitler. These conferences called by the ringing of a bell are not to my liking. The bell is rung when people call their servants. And besides, what kind of conferences are these? For five hours I am forced to listen to a monologue which is quite fruitless and boring

Benito Mussolini
The Fascist conception of the State is all-embracing outside of it no human or spiritual values can exist, much less have value.

Benito Mussolini
As regards the Liberal doctrines, the attitude of Fascism is one of absolute opposition both in the political and in the economical field.
Benito Mussolini
For my part I prefer fifty thousand rifles to five million votes.
Benito Mussolini
If I advance follow me. If I retreat kill me. If I die avenge me! It is better to live one day as a lion than one-hundred years as a sheep!
Benito Mussolini

Benito Mussolini
If only we can give them faith that mountains can be moved, they will accept the illusion that mountains are moveable, and thus an illusion may become reality.
Benito Mussolini
Italian journalism is free because it serves one cause and one purpose... mine!
Benito Mussolini
The state reserves the right to be the sole interpreter of the needs of society.
Benito Mussolini
