More from Benito Mussolini
"Socialism is a beautiful thing; but Fascism is a reality."
"My objective is to make Italy greater, stronger, more prosperous, more glorious."
"It's good to trust others but, not to do so is much better."
"The Fascist conception of the State is all-embracing; outside of it no human or spiritual values can exist, much less have value."
"We were the first to assert that the more complicated the forms of civilization, the more restricted the freedom of the individual must become."
About Benito Mussolini (1883-1945)
Italian fascist who founded the National Fascist Party in 1919 and ruled Italy 1922-1943, before being executed by partisans in April 1945. Closely associated with Adolf Hitler (Axis ally and ideological successor) and Francisco Franco (Spanish authoritarian and ideological cousin). For an intellectual contrast, see Antonio Gramsci, Italian Marxist intellectual and Communist Party founder — Gramsci's Prison Notebooks — written 1929-1935 inside Mussolini's prisons — became the foundational text of cultural-hegemony theory. The cleanest 'fascist regime vs intellectual it imprisoned' pairing in 20th-century history; Gramsci developed his analysis of how fascism wins through cultural consent while dying in Mussolini's custody.
