If two irreconcilable elements are struggling with each other, the solution lies in force. There has never been any other solution in history, and there never will be.

Image
[The Fuhrer] is one of those lonely men of the ages on whom history is not tested, but who themselves are the makers of history.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Liberty is no longer the virgin, chaste and severe, to be fought for ... we have buried the putrid corpse of liberty ... the Italian people are a race of sheep.
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
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
The state reserves the right to be the sole interpreter of the needs of society.
Benito Mussolini
Image
The mass, whether it be a crowd or an army, is vile.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Our future lies to the east and south, in Asia and Africa.

The Fascist conception of the State is all-embracing outside of it no human or spiritual values can exist, much less have value. Thus understood, Fascism is totalitarian, and the Fascist State -- a synthesis and a unit inclusive of all values -- interprets, develops, and potentiates the whole life of a people.

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
Image
For us the national flag is a rag to be planted on a dunghill. There are only two fatherlands in the world: that of the exploited and that of the exploiters.
Benito Mussolini
Image
It is not impossible to rule Italians, but it would be useless.
Benito Mussolini
Image
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
Image
Italian journalism is free because it serves one cause and one purpose... mine!
Benito Mussolini
Image
It was only one life. What is one life in the affairs of a state?
Benito Mussolini
Image
I owe most to Georges Sorel. This master of syndicalism by his rough theories of revolutionary tactics has contributed most to form the discipline, energy and power of the fascist cohorts.

Fascism is not an article for export.
Benito Mussolini
Image
Democratic regimes may be defined as those in which, every now and then, the people are given the illusion of being sovereign, while the true sovereignty in actual fact resides in other forces which are sometimes irresponsible and secret.
Benito Mussolini
Image
For my part I prefer fifty thousand rifles to five million votes.
Benito Mussolini
Image
The Fascist accepts life and loves it, knowing nothing of and despising suicide he rather conceives of life as duty and struggle and conquest, life which should be high and full, lived for oneself, but not above all for others those who are at hand and those who are far distant, contemporaries, and those who will come after.

As regards the Liberal doctrines, the attitude of Fascism is one of absolute opposition both in the political and in the economical field.
