I unfortunately have never in my life been to a wild party.

I don't need to go into office for the power. I have houses all over the world, stupendous boats... beautiful airplanes, a beautiful wife, a beautiful family... I am making a sacrifice.

The life in Italy is the life of a wealthy country: consumptions haven't diminished, it's hard to find seats on planes, our restaurants are full of people.

The link between my experience as an entrepreneur and that of a politician is all in one word: freedom.

I never understood where the satisfaction is when you're missing the pleasure of conquest.

It's a great sacrifice to do what I'm doing. I'm not having fun at all...What a brutal job!

Because of my personal history, my professional skills and my business achievements, I am a man nobody can expect to compare himself with.
