Quoted in Dino Martirano, Contestabile: «Cacciato con una telefonata», Corriere della sera, 7 March 2006, p. 13.
Once the [PSI] party was dissolved, some became Muslims, some Jews, some Catholics. But we have always remained socialists.
Quoted in Dino Martirano, Contestabile: «Cacciato con una telefonata», Corriere della sera, 7 March 2006, p. 13.
