We all say no to war, we are all for justice and peace. But sometimes in order to maintain peace, armed action is necessary. But we hope it won't be the case.

We must be capable of speaking a language of peace, but not one of surrender.

When asked if they would like to have sex with me, 30 per cent said, “Yes”, while the other 70 per cent replied, “What, again?”

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

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.

I am absolutely sure to be the most democratic man to ever become Prime Minister in Italy.

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.
