"I am one of the many aspects of the ones ... who paid with their goods and their culture for the war damages that Italy caused. It was the simplest thing, because, after all we weren't Italians, we became Italians in spite of ourselves. We were of Italian culture, I speak of nationality ... the consequences of this commodification of the people, which took place after the war."

"And so this populism continues to grow, there are those who say we are all fascists, those who tell us that we are communists, but we are just us. We are good people who have been wronged, a very great wrong, a cowardly wrong, because it has not only damaged our pockets, as wealth comes and goes, but has damaged the hearts and brains."

"I just want to point out a detail, which I would like to be understood, when you are in a structure of this (refugee) camp, with these blankets that separate (the people), you do not live only your life, you also live the life of others. You hear the lovers stifle their moans, the cries of those who have left home and do not know how to react. You feel the pain, because people keep getting sick - actually, in places without structures, you get sick more easily, the food was what it was. Then it becomes a collective pain, it is no longer a pain of the individual."
