"[It would be good to see] the end of this legend of secrecy, the poisoned fruit of the deeds of the Arezzo mattress maker, which has no reason to persist. But how can one - one gets heated - confuse the Grand Orient, school of ethics and ruling class, with the scoundrels who infest the country, even in false Masonic lodges? Fascism persecuted it, forcing the Freemasons to keep their organisation secret, but today we are a transparent institution that has returned to history. This is demonstrated by the dozens of our cultural conferences with participants of the calibre of Margherita Jack, Rita Levi Montalcini, Umberto Galimberti, Giuseppe Mussari, Ignazio Marino, Paolo Prodi, Gian Mario Cazzaniga and many other philosophers, historians and academics of renowned and distinguished science. Has the Democratic Party now realised that the left is also the daughter of Freemasonry? The names of those who fled to Paris during Fascism, the Partisan Brigades in Spain and the Constituent Assembly, where out of 75 members 8 were Freemasons, from Cipriano Facchinetti to Arturo Labriola and Meuccio Ruini, are proof of this."
