I could have turned this room into a camp for corpses and stitched up the doors of Parliament.
Benito Mussolini, speech to the Italian Parliament, 16, Nov. 1922.
Our opponents accused us of being National Socialists and I, in particular, of being intolerant and petty. They say we don't want to work with other parties. They say that National Socialists are not really Germans, because they refused to work with other political parties. So is it typical for Germans to have thirty parties? I have to admit one thing – these gentlemen are completely correct. We are intolerant. I gave myself a goal – to sweep these parties out of Germany. They confuse us. We have a goal, and we're going to follow it fanatically to the grave.
