“The P2 Lodge, until its dissolution in 1982 due to the Anselmi-Spadolini law, was a regular lodge of the Grand Orient of Italy, as attested by extensive documentation that passed between the grand masters Gamberini, Salvini and Battelli on the one hand and Licio Gelli on the other.”

“I believe that the future of humanity, which sees the realisation of the global society, must be governed by a community of wise men who express the One, the enlightened tyrant.”

“I created a new Obedience, simply to restore a traditional type of Freemasonry to Italy, and the traditional type of Freemasonry is English Freemasonry. In fact, I transposed from English Freemasonry Constitutions, Regulations and Rituals.”

“His vision and mine are very similar. We both believe that in the future of humanity, ideological, religious and political differentiations will disappear. For me it will be a communion of the enlightened, presided over by the 'enlightened tyrant', for Casaleggio it will be the network that will lead [umanity. I am not aware that Casaleggio belongs to Masonry. Grillo addresses the masses; Casaleggio, on the other hand, speaks to an élite with his message. I hadn't voted for 15 years, but I went back to it and gave my preference to the Five Star Movement. And many of the people I know who share my worldview did the same. The important thing is that Casaleggio does not get corrupted, that he does not accept compromise with other political forces. Renewal must be radical”

“Ettore Loizzo, engineer of Cosenza, my deputy in the Goi, a person who for me was the highest representative of the Goi, during a meeting of the Council of the Grand Orient of Italy (a sort of Board of Directors of the Goi in which my successor Gustavo Raffi, current Grand Master of the Goi, was also present) that I urgently called in 1993 after the beginning of the investigation of Dr. Cordova on Freemasonry, said that he could state with certainty that in Calabria, out of 32 lodges, 28 were controlled by the 'ndrangheta. [Agostino] Cordova on Freemasonry, at my precise request, he said that he could state with certainty that in Calabria, out of 32 lodges, 28 were controlled by the 'ndrangheta. I jumped up in my chair. I immediately said to him: and what do you want to do in the face of this disaster? He replied: nothing. Even more astonished, I asked him why. He replied that he could do nothing because otherwise he and his family would risk serious reprisals.”

“The situation of the Grand Regular Lodge of Italy, as stated in the report of the Anti-Mafia Commission, is the one that, in relation to the GOI, is the most polluted by mafia and 'ndrangheta infiltration. The Grand Regular Lodge of Italy, which was the flagship of Italian and English Freemasonry, has been reduced to ashes by Fabio Venzi. I ask myself: how can the United Grand Lodge of England continue to recognise it as the only Masonic Obedience on Italian soil? What is Venzi waiting for to resign? [...] If Venzi were to resign, perhaps someone else could restore a modicum of dignity to what I consider my Masonic creature.”
