Believe, obey, fight.

This is the epitaph I want on my tomb: Here lies one of the most intelligent animals who ever appeared on the face of the earth.

Fascism should rightly be called corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power.

Nessun fenomeno al mondo può impedire al sole di risorgere.

The Socialists ask what is our program? Our program is to smash the heads of the Socialists.

Religion is man-made to assist in controlling the weak minded individuals because during times of atrocity and despair they feel strength in numbers.

Peace is absurd: Fascism does not believe in it.

I want to make my own life a masterpiece.

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power

Socialism is a fraud, a comedy, a phantom, a blackmail.

Fascist education is moral, physical, social, and military: it aims to create a complete and harmoniously developed human, a fascist one according to our views.

The truth is that men are tired of liberty.

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 (l926) 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.

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

It is humiliating to remain with our hands folded while others write history. It matters little who wins. To make a people great it is necessary to send them to battle even if you have to kick them in the pants. That is what I shall do.

It’s good to trust others but, not to do so is much better.

The League is very well when sparrows shout, but no good at all when eagles fall out.

The function of a citizen and a soldier are inseparable.

Silence is the only answer you should give to the fools. Where ignorance speaks, intelligence should not give advices.

Yes, a dictator can be loved. Provided that the masses fear him at the same time. The crowd love strong men. The crowd is like a woman.

Race? It is a feeling, not a reality. Ninety-five per cent, at least. Nothing will ever make me believe that biologically pure races can be shown to exist today…. National pride has no need of the delirium of race.

There is a violence that liberates, and a violence that enslaves; there is a violence that is moral and a violence that is immoral.

Blood alone literally moves the wheels of history.

What the proletariat needs is a bath of blood.

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.

Journalism is not a profession, but a mission.

Let us have a dagger between our teeth,a bomb in our hand,and an infinite scorn in our hearts.

State intervention in economic production arises only when private initiative is lacking or insufficient, or when the political interests of the State are involved. This intervention may take the form of control, assistance or direct management.

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.

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.

The corporate State considers that private enterprise in the sphere of production is the most effective and useful instrument in the interest of the nation. In view of the fact that private organisation of production is a function of national concern, the organiser of the enterprise is responsible to the State for the direction given to production.

All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.

We become strong, I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look to for moral guidance.

Fascism is a religion. The twentieth century will be known in history as the century of Fascism.

War alone brings up to their highest tension all human energies and imposes the stamp of nobility upon the peoples who have the courage to make it.

Fascism, the more it considers and observes the future and the development of humanity, quite apart from political considerations of the moment, believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace.

The Liberal State is a mask behind which there is no face; it is a scaffolding behind which there is no building.

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

We do not argue with those who disagree with us, we destroy them.

Better to live a day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep

We deny your internationalism, because it is a luxury which only the upper classes can afford.

There is no revolution that can change the nature of man

I should be pleased, I suppose, that Hitler has carried out a revolution on our lines. But they are Germans. So they will end by ruining our idea.

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.

We become strongest, I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look for moral gudance

Every anarchist is a baffled dictator.

We have buried the putrid corpse of liberty

War is to man what maternity is to a woman. From a philosophical and doctrinal viewpoint, I do not believe in perpetual peace.

The keystone of the Fascist doctrine is its conception of the State, of its essence, its functions, and its aims. For Fascism the State is absolute, individuals and groups relative.

The fate of nations is intimately bound up with their powers of reproduction. All nations and all empires first felt decadence gnawing at them when their birth rate fell off.

Inactivity is death.

Fascism is not an article for export.

Fascism is a religious concept.

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!

I have been a racist since 1921. I don’t know how they can think I’m imitating Hitler,

Italian journalism is free because it serves one cause and one purpose… mine!

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.

The state reserves the right to be the sole interpreter of the needs of society.

The history of saints is mainly the history of insane people.” -Benito Mussolini (Chuck Palahniuk – Pygmy)

The definition of fascism is The marriage of corporation and state

It is the State which educates its citizens in civic virtue, gives them a consciousness of their mission and welds them into unity.

It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep.

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.

The struggle between the two worlds [Fascism and Democracy] can permit no compromises. It’s either Us or Them!

Democracy is a kingless regime infested by many kings who are sometimes more exclusive, tyrannical and destructive than one, even if he be a tyrant.

Democracy is talking itself to death. The people do not know what they want; they do not know what is the best for them. There is too much foolishness, too much lost motion. I have stopped the talk and the nonsense. I am a man of action. Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice it is a fallacy. You in America will see that some day.

Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice it is a fallacy.

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.

The best blood will at some time get into a fool or a mosquito.

A nation of spaghetti eaters cannot restore Roman civilization!
