"Berlusconi has changed Italy a lot, but as far as I am concerned he has not changed it for the better, mainly because he has cleared certain attitudes towards women, money, and the sense of institutions. Berlusconi had a patronising attitude with all things in the world, such as women, politics, power, the relationship between public and private. He had a patrimonial relationship with all things and with all people around him. And that was unacceptable to me."

Berlusconi ha cambiato tanto l'Italia, ma per quanto mi riguarda non l’ha cambiata in meglio, soprattutto perché ha sdoganato certi comportamenti nei confronti delle donne, del denaro, del senso delle istituzioni. Berlusconi ha avuto un atteggiamento padronale con tutte le cose al mondo, come le donne, la politica, il potere, il rapporto tra pubblico e privato. Lui ha avuto un rapporto patrimoniale con tutte le cose e con tutte le persone che lo circondavano. E questo per me era inaccettabile. —
