I don't even know if I will be around next year. My cancers are so bad that I think I've arrived at the end of the road. What a pity. I would like to live not only because I love life so much, but because I'd like to see the result of the trial. I do think I will be found guilty.

No matter what system you live under, there is no escaping the law that it's always the strongest, the cruellest, the least generous who win.

I am disgusted by the anti-Semitism of many Italians, of many Europeans.

Glory is a heavy burden, a murdering poison, and to bear it is an art. And to have that art is rare.
