Personal Quotes

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

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

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

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

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.
