Image
What is liberty? There is no such thing as absolute liberty!
Benito Mussolini
Image
I am not a collector of deserts!
Benito Mussolini
Image
Three cheers for the war. Three cheers for Italy's war and three cheers for war in general. Peace is hence absurd or rather a pause in war.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Every anarchist is a baffled dictator.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Fascism accepts the individual only insofar as his interests coincide with the state's.
Benito Mussolini
Image
It's good to trust others but, not to do so is much better.
Benito Mussolini
Image
People are tired of liberty. They have had a surfeit of it. Liberty is no longer a chaste and austere virgin.... Today's youth are moved by other slogans...Order, Hierarchy, Discipline.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Fascism conceives of the State as an absolute, in comparison with which all individuals or groups are relative, only to be conceived in their relation to the State.
Benito Mussolini
Image
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.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Fascism entirely agrees with Mr. Maynard Keynes, despite the latter's prominent position as a Liberal. In fact, Mr. Keynes' excellent little book, The End of Laissez-Faire (1926) might, so far as it goes, serve as a useful introduction to fascist economics. There is scarcely anything to object to in it and there is much to applaud.

It is not impossible to rule Italians, but it would be useless.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Our future lies to the east and south, in Asia and Africa.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Lenin is an artist who has worked men, as other artists have worked marble or metals. But men are harder than stone and less malleable than iron. There is no masterpiece. The artist has failed. The task was superior to his capacities.
Benito Mussolini
Image
What is freedom? There is no such thing as absolute freedom!
Benito Mussolini
Image
The struggle between the two worlds [Fascism and Democracy] can permit no compromises. The new cycle which begins with the ninth year of the Fascist regime places the alternative in even greater relief either we or they, either their ideas or ours, either our State or theirs!
Benito Mussolini
Image
It was only one life. What is one life in the affairs of a state?
Benito Mussolini
Image
The best blood will at some time get into a fool or a mosquito.
Benito Mussolini
Image
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.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Let us have a dagger between our teeth, a bomb in our hands and an infinite scorn in our hearts.
Benito Mussolini

The mass, whether it be a crowd or an army, is vile.
