"We are a country without memory. That is to say, without history. Italy removes his recent past, the television ether lost in oblivion, it takes only memories, fragments that may make them convenient for its contortions, for his conversion.
But Italy is a country circular gattopardesco, where everything changes to remain as is. In which everything flows really not to go. If Italy had care of his history, his memory, it would find that the schemes are not born from nothing, are the result of poisons ancient metastasis invincible, we learn that special in this country live the high life, but with the ragged ass, that his vices are cyclical, recurring embodied by men with different the cynicism, the same disregard for ethics, with the same allergy to the coherence, in a moral tension. "
