Noi con la P2 avevamo l'Italia in mano. Allora c'era l'Esercito, Guardia di Finanza, Polizia: erano nettamente comandate da tutta gente della loggia massonica P2. [...] Noi non abbiamo mai voluto attaccare e non si poteva attaccare, però eravamo una sentinella perché non emergesse il Partito Comunista.
