Quotations

"What perversion, what bestial impulses, what general degeneration! It makes me shiver just to think that in cold blood, without heat, without passion, without real fanaticism, one can carry out such ignoble and repugnant gestures." (description of fascists in World War I, Turati & K 1977 IV/2, pp. 808-9, from O'Brien, p. 181; 1908 photo Wikipedia)
