Removed quotes

These quotes are particularly dubious, so I have removed them. Please only re-add them if you can reference some respectable secondary sources. Peace and Passion ("I'm listening....") 04:32, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

• The Spanish Republic did not find itself free of obligations. For the most part the leaders were Freemasons. Before their duty to their country came their obligations to the Grand Orient. In my opinion, Freemasonry, with all its international influence, is the organization principally responsible for the political ruin of Spain, as well as the murder of Calvo Sotelo, who was executed in accordance with orders from the Grand Secretary of Freemasonry in Geneva.
  • Franco in an interview with Spanish journalist Nena Belmonte. Reported in article Freemasonry and the Spanish Civil War by Matthew Scanlan.

• We have torn up Marxist materialism and we have disorientated Masonry. We have thwarted the Satanic machinations of the clandestine Masonic super state; which controls the world’s press and numerous international politicians. Spain’s struggle is a Crusade; as soldiers of God we carry with us the evangelism of the world.
  • On 11 September 1945 in a speech to the women’s section of the Falange in Madrid.

• The whole secret of the campaigns unleashed against Spain can be explained in two words: masonry and communism... we have to extirpate these two evils from our land.
  • Franco on 14 December 1946, writing under the alias Jakin Boor in the journal Arriba in an article, "Masonry and Communism".

Unsourced

These should be provided with sources before being moved back into the article.

• Aguirre miente. Nosotros hemos respetado Guernica, como respetamos todo lo español.
  • Translation: Aguirre lies. We have respected Guernica, as we respect everything Spanish. (Franco, declining all responsibilities on Guernica's carpet bombing)
• A sphinx without a riddle.
  • Or, A sphinx without a secret.

Banjo eyes

Does anyone know who Franco was referring to in the quote with ' banjo eyes ' ... was it the comedian? Howard.noble323 (talk) 11:15, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
