More from Benito Mussolini
"The Fascist regime has not sought to create a new type of man, but to inspire in the Italian people a new spirit."
"The greatest joy of man is to defeat his enemies, to drive them before him, to take from them all that they possess, to ride their horses, and to make sweet music with their wives and daughters."
"Socialism is a fraud, a comedy, a phantom, a blackmail."
"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power."
"I want to make Italy great, respected, and feared."
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.
