Cristian --
That allocution has been cited as stating:
"To allow the masses, invariably uninformed and impulsive, to make decisions on the most serious matters, is this not to hand oneself over to chance and deliberately run towards the abyss? Yes, universal suffrage should rather be called universal madness, and when, as so often happens, it is taken over by the secret societies, it is universal falsehood!"
I wanted to see the original in its entirety, but have come up with nothing on the Net.
Many thanks, Cristian!
