Ok. Ringrazio Drogon e passo alla mia citazione:
''Il Duce è uno statista di primissimo ordine, completamente disinteressato. Un superuomo.''
« I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away. »

Esatto. Pensavo durasse un po' di più... ">

Questa proprio non l'avrei mai saputa..
Nemmeno io...avrei piuttosto pensato a Churchill...
io a d'annunzio.....
prossima citazione (in lingua originale)
"Merde!"
Pierre Carbonne, la sua risposta agli Inglesi che lo invitavano ad arrendersi alla fine dalla battaglia di Waterloo.
Giusto, era proprio il valoroso e fedele Cambronne
E la tua citazione è la versione "volgare" (e raccontata da Victor Hugo) dell'altra "la guardia muore ma non si arrende"....peccato che anche quest'ultima sia assolutamente falsa: a Waterloo, Cambronne si arrese.
Nuova citazione:
Nessun primo ministro, nessun favorito onnipossente. Voi solo il padrone
Elisabetta I d'Inghilterra della Casa Tudor?
