"(About Giorgio Gaber) Among the various memories I have of him on stage, what stands out is the profound feeling he left me with the first time I heard him shout about being communists, among other things, “because Enrico Berlinguer was a good person.” Another provocation, really, because it implied that ideologies are empty and that other things matter more. He pointed out that we often cling to them when we don't know how to define our identity, while normal things, such as being decent, can be a source of identity for man."
