Fascism conceives of the State as an absolute, in comparison with which all individuals or groups are relative, only to be conceived in their relation to the State.

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.

In Fascism the State is not a night-watchman, only occupied with the personal safety of the citizens.

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

Italy, wants peace and quiet, work and calm. I will give these things with love if possible and with force if necessary.

Our future lies to the east and south, in Asia and Africa.
