“Freedom is the will to be responsible for ourselves. It is to preserve the distance which separates us from other men. To grow more indifferent to hardship, to severity, to privation, and even to life itself. To be ready to sacrifice men for one's cause, one's self included” — Friedrich Nietzsche

"We know that Diogenes and the other Cynics admired the Spartan system because the Spartans were partisans of discipline and austerity and enemies of luxury and sloth." Jean Thiriart

"The life of danger, the true life of history, is once again coming into its own. Everything has become unstable. At present, only those men who dare, who have the courage to see and take things as they are, count. The time will come - no, it has come - when there will be no more room for tender souls or for the ideal of the weak." Oswald Spengler, Decisive Years .

"We are the true Rebels. We, those labeled as Nazi-Fascists, are the ones truly rebelling. We rebel against the idea that there’s nothing left to do in the face of overwhelming enemies armed to the teeth and overflowing with supplies. How can anyone believe—asks the man on the street—that Germans, Japanese, and Fascists could stand a chance against an America untouched in its war production, blessed with endless raw materials? Or against a Britain raising vast, well-equipped armies from its immense colonies? Or a Russia, immense and bristling with men and weapons? Three great powers, armed to the hilt, masters of three-quarters of the world, and even seen by some as agents of ‘liberation’? Still, we rebel—against fate’s harsh blows, against misfortune, against the disbelief of those who doubt our conviction and our faith. We rebel against the looming threat of severe punishment, which we know may come at any moment. We rebel even against the coldness and silence of cowards who, in these darkest hours, are too afraid to so much as nod or smile at us—lest it count against them when the Anglo-Americans arrive. We are the true Rebels. It’s easy to claim that title when you think friendly armies are just days away, when victory feels inevitable, when you believe you’re on the side of the strongest—of the supposedly invincible. It’s easy to call yourself a rebel when you’re surrounded by the praise of the timid, eager to endear themselves to the ‘winning horse’; when you’re encouraged and financed by plutocrats who are just hedging their bets. When following the crowd suddenly feels heroic—profitable, even. But we are the ones who rebel when it costs everything. We are the true Rebels." – Giuseppe Solaro 🇮🇹 | I Ribelli Siamo Noi Turin, April 29, 1945. Giuseppe Solaro, federal secretary of the Republican Fascist Party, gazes at the crowd gathered to watch him die, calm and with the pride of his dignity as a true rebel.

A year after Mussolini took power in 1922 Lovecraft wrote that,

“Democracy is a false idol—a mere catchword and illusion of inferior classes, visionaries and dying civilizations.”

He saw in Fascist Italy

“the sort of authoritative social and political control which alone produce things which make life worth living.”

"Our world will not be saved by blind intellectuals or bored academics. It will be saved by poets and fighters, those who will have forged the 'magic sword' of which Ernst Jünger spoke, the spiritual sword that makes monsters and tyrants pale with fear." - Dominique Venner

"We reject a world where the certainty of not dying of hunger is exchanged for death by boredom." André Stéphane. The Contesting Universe (1969)

"There is a sure rule for judging books, as well as men, even without knowing them; it is enough to know 'by whom they are esteemed and by whom they are hated.'" –Joseph de Maistre

"We will create such confusion and chaos that those who proclaim the truth will be taken for madmen." Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

"Intellectualism (as we fascists understand it) separates thought from action, science from life, brain from heart, and theory from practice. It is the stance of the charlatan and the skeptic, of the one who entrenches himself behind the maxim that it is one thing to say something and another to do something; it is the utopian who manufactures systems that will never face concrete reality; it is the talk of the poet, the scientist, the philosopher, who limit themselves to fantasy and speculation and are not willing to look around them and see the ground under their feet and in which are found those fundamental human interests that feed their own fantasy and intelligence." —Giovanni Gentile

"Slavery grows beyond measure when it is given the appearance of freedom." Ernst Jünger.

"It is easy to be a fascist. But it is difficult to continue being a fascist. Fascism is a movement without rest, not a sterile wait but a continuous struggle." —Italian Fascists of Combat, "Political Orientations. Practical Postulates"

“If you love wealth better than liberty, and the tranquillity of servitude better than the animating struggle of liberty, go home in peace. We ask neither his counsel nor his arms. Stoop and lick the hands that feed you. Let your chains grow accustomed to you, and let posterity forget that you are our countrymen.” Samuel Adams.

"The art of our enemies is to demoralize and sadden people. Depressed people do not win. That is why we come to fight for the country happily. Nothing great can be done with sadness." Arturo Jauretche

"There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nobody." Aristotle.

Fascism must be thought of as a challenge to America. And a defying challenge it is, whether we choose to admit it or not, and whether we attempt to suppress it or not. The Philosophy of Fascism (1936) Mario Palmieri

"Peoples who were worth something, who came to be worth something in history, never got there under liberal institutions: the great danger was what made them something worthy of respect, the danger, which is what makes us know our resources, our virtues, our weapons of defense and attack, our spirit, which is what compels us to be strong... that is what made those peoples worth something and worthy of admiration in history." Frederich Nietsczche.

"Feminism brought the confusing idea that women are free when they serve their master, but slaves when they help their husband." Gilbert Keith Chesterton.

"As soon as selfishness prevails in a people, the bonds of order are broken, and men, guided by the ambition of personal well-being, rush from heaven to hell." 1 8
