What is freedom? There is no such thing as absolute freedom!

As long as 1911, when I was still a member of the Socialist Party, I wrote that the Gordian knot of Trent could be cut only by the sword. At the same date I declared that war is usually the prelude to revolution. It was therefore easy for me, when the Great War broke out, to predict the Russian and the German revolutions.

I am making superhuman efforts to educate this people. When they have learnt to obey, they will believe what I tell them.

Fascism recognizes the real needs which gave rise to socialism and trade unionism, giving them due weight in the guild or corporative system in which divergent interests are coordinated and harmonized in the unity of the State.
Benito Mussolini

You cannot get rid of me because I am and always will be a socialist. You hate me because you still love me.

To-day we can affirm that the capitalistic method of production is out of date. So is the doctrine of laissez-faire, the theoretical basis of capitalism… To-day we are taking a new and decisive step in the path of revolution. A revolution, in order to be great, must be a social revolution.
Benito Mussolini

Fascism was not the protector of any one class, but a supreme regulator of the relations between all citizens of a state.
Benito Mussolini
-
The outbreak of a socialist revolution in one country will cause the others to imitate it or so to strengthen the proletariat as to prevent its national bourgeoisie from attempting any armed intervention.
Benito Mussolini
-
You want to know what fascism is like? It is like your New Deal!
Benito Mussolini

Yet the Fascist State is unique, and an original creation. It is not reactionary, but revolutionary, in that it anticipates the solution of the universal political problems which elsewhere have to be settled in the political field by the rivalry of parties, the excessive power of the Parliamentary regime and the irresponsibility of political assemblies.

I don't like the look of him.
