“How many times has Fascism been accused with obtuse malevolence of barbarity? Well yes: once you understand the true significance of this barbarity we will boast of it, as the expression of the healthy energies which shatter false and baleful idols, and restore the health of the nation within the power of a State conscious of its sovereign rights which are its duties.”
Giovanni Gentile, Che cosa è il Fascismo (what is fascism?), lecture delivered in Florence (March 8, 1925)
