"Cecchi Paone is a kind of right-wing aunt. I don't dislike him. I don't like him, but not because he's right-wing. If Robert Redford were right-wing, I'd still like him. Cecchi Paone, honestly... I don't even like Rizzo . But when Rizzo's name comes up in gay clubs, everyone."

Cecchi Paone è una specie di zia di destra. Non mi è antipatico. Non mi piace ma non perché è di destra. Se Robert Redford fosse di destra mi piacerebbe lo stesso. Cecchi Paone, sinceramente... Rizzo nemmeno mi piace. Ma quando nei locali gay si nomina Rizzo si eccitano tutti... quella testa pelata... — From an interview of Claudio Sabelli Fioretti, sabellifioretti.it, 23 January 2007
