“[The university must be] a hub of scientific activity, a true laboratory in which teachers and students work together to explore new truths and to re-examine issues that have already been discussed. In this way, students are nurtured to develop a critical spirit and, more importantly, given the special purpose of our University, a spirit of research.”

“If the arms merchants of extremely wealthy nations have sided with the Bolsheviks, as have the politicians of the various popular fronts who, obeying Moscow's orders, are defending themselves and their ideology, then here is Italian fascism, led by its Duce, breaking with diplomatic hypocrisy and calling on old Europe to consider where the mistakes of its diplomats will lead it.”

“Felice Momigliano, a Jew, a secondary school teacher, a great philosopher and a great socialist, has committed suicide. Spineless journalists have written maudlin obituaries. Someone mentioned that he was the Rector of the Mazzinian University. Others pointed out that he was a belated positivist.”

“Our soldier sings often and willingly. During the long hours of waiting, which are so long and so frequent in life during this war, he sings. For him, it is a need. It is the way he expresses his feelings. And even prohibitions are not particularly effective against this need… As thoughts flow through him, bringing back memories of love, sorrow and joy, he spontaneously expresses his inner feelings through song, and if one soldier sings a verse, others echo him; that is how choruses are improvised. This happens above all during work and during marches, to break the monotony and to restore strength through the rhythm and cheerfulness of a musical verse.”
