"Belarda was a real old fascist. [...] During our training camp in Formia, we watched political debates on TV. When Almirante spoke, he would ask for silence, “Everyone be quiet, I need to hear!”, and I would make noise. Then when Natta spoke, I would say, “Now I have to listen.” Or I would show up at the table with L'Unità. Then [...] with Il Manifesto. And Belarda would say, “What is this stuff? Put it away immediately!” And I would say, “What, can't we read the newspaper?”"
Adriano Panatta
