Notable Quotes

❝ The memory. A more or less distant figure nestled somewhere in the mind of man.

❝ “If you want to go on a pilgrimage to the place where our Constitution was born, go to the mountains where the partisans fell, to the prisons where they were imprisoned, in the fields where they were hanged. Wherever an Italian died to redeem freedom and dignity, go there, young people, in thought, because there our Constitution was born”.
