Hey Ernie? You wanna job?

Say hello to my little friend!

You are going to accuse a man worth eight and a half million dollars of manipulating drug trials?

Kiss my tiara! I didn't get prints.

u can judge the weight of a man not by who his friends are, but by who his enemies are.

You worry too much.Your gonna have a heart attack.

Your belly needs. Your heart wants.

You know what i'm talkin' about you fucking cockaroach.

I don't want you coming down when I'm up.

Look, but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow.

It took him 88 minutes to hack my sister to bits.

You don't charge people for something like this. What's wrong with you?

I think I'm gonna go home, I think.

Oh yeah, where's home?

Ft. Wayne...

Ft. Wayne.

Illinois?? Hey, I did time there!

Illinois? Hey, I did time there!

*laughs* No, Indiana...

No, Indiana...

Oh, well I think I did time there too.

Free will. It's like butterfly wings: once touched, they never get off the ground. No, I only set the stage. You pull your own strings.

If you don't listen to me and marry this man, you'll disappoint me.

You'd better take a *good* look, because I'm getting two things: pissed off and curious

Well, when Johnny was first starting out, he was signed to a personal services contract with this big-band leader. And as his career got better and better, he wanted to get out of it. But the band leader wouldn't let him. Now, Johnny is my father's godson. So my father went to see this bandleader and offered him $10,000 to let Johnny go, but the bandleader said no. So the next day, my father went back, only this time with Luca Brasi. Within an hour, he had a signed release for a certified check of $1000.

How did he do that?

My father made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

What was that?

Luca Brasi held a gun to his head, and my father assured him that either his brains or his signature would be on the contract....... Thats a true story.

Is time to kick ass or chew gum and guess what?

I'm all out of gum.

You're dirty, Lips. You need a bath.

No, not the bath, Big Boy! Not the Bath!

Wait a minute! Wait. I'm having a thought. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I'm gonna have a thought. It's coming... It's gone.

Wait a minute! Wait. I'm having a thought. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I'm gonna have a thought. It's coming. It's gone.

I'm out.

It only works if we're all in.

Then it don't work.

If a woman don't wear mink, she don't wear nothin'.

Well, I look good both ways.

I'm coasting on my laurels, thank you.

I yell a lot. Is that acting? Is that good enough?

You want to play games? Okay, I play with you.

Don't go too far, Tony.

I'm not, Mel, you are. [shoots Mel in the gut]

I'm not, Mel, you are.

You can't shoot a cop!

Who ever said you was one?

Wait a minute! You let me go, I'll fix this up.

Sure, Mel. Maybe you can hand yourself one of them first-class tickets to the Resurrection... So long, Mel, have a nice trip.

Sure, Mel. Maybe you can hand yourself one of them first-class tickets to the Resurrection. So long, Mel, have a nice trip.

Fuck you! [Tony shoots him dead]

Fuck you!

You die, motherfucker! [shoots Alberto in the head.]

You die, motherfucker!

Where'd you learn English, Tony?

In school. And my father, he was from the United States, just like you, you know? He was a Yankee, he used to take me a lot to the movies. I learned, I watched the guys like Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney. They teach me to talk. I like those guys. I always know one day I'm coming here, United States.

I told you I never going back.

Because she has a great ass and you got your head all the up it.

There is a flip side to that coin. What if you do got me boxed in and I gotta put you down? Cause no matter what, you will not get in my way. We've been face to face, yeah. But I will not hesitate. Not for a second.

A guy told me one time, "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner.

Say 'hello' to my little friend!

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

Day after day you suck the marrow out of real cops when you never had the balls to become one yourself.

I'll make him an offer he can't refuse. You see, Johnny, we feel that entertainment is going to be a big factor in drawing gamblers into the casinos. We're hoping that you'll sign a contract agreeing to appear 5 times a year. Perhaps convince some of your friends in the movies to do the same. We're counting on you, Johnny.

There are negotiations being made that are going to answer all of your questions and solve all of your problems. That's all I can tell you right now. Carlo, you grew up in Nevada. When we make our move there you're going to be my right hand man. Tom Hagen is no longer Consigliari. He's going to be our lawyer in Vegas. That's no reflection on Tom it's just the way I want it. Besides, if I ever help who's a better Consigliari than my father. That's it.

You have to answer for Santino, Carlo. You fingered Sonny for the Barzini people.

Mike, you got it all wrong.

Ah, that little farce you played with my sister. You think that would fool a Corleone?

Mike, I'm innocent. I swear on the kids.

Sit down.

Please don't do this to me, Mike. Please don't.

Hey, let me buy you a pack of gum. I'll show you how to chew it."

Hey, let me buy you a pack of gum. I'll show you how to chew it.

Hey Leon! Happy Birthday!

Put your fucking guns down! Put your fucking guns down! Put your fucking guns down! Put your fucking guns down! Attica! Attica! Attica! Attica! Attica!

Something big may happen for that little thing of yours Charlie

I am never going back.

Then don't take down scores.

I do what I do best: I take scores. You do what you do best: Try to stop guys like me.

You know what capitalism is? Getting fucked!

[to Tony] Remember I told you when you started; the guys who last in this business ..are the guys who fly straight, low-key, quiet. And the guys who want it all; chicas, champagne, flash ..they don't last

You finished?

In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

I kill a communist for fun, but for a green card, I gonna carve him up real nice.

Keep them alive.

We'll try.

Rocco! Alive!

Fuck Gaspar Gomez! And fuck the fucking Diaz brothers! Fuck them all! I bury those cockroaches. What they ever do for us?

WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN TOO ME!

[Ordering drinks in a Havana cafe] Uno... por favor... [to Michael] How do you say "banana daiquiri"?

[ordering drinks in a Havana cafe] Uno... por favor... [to Michael] How do you say banana daiquiri?

"Banana daiquiri."

Banana daiquiri.

He was stupid. I was lucky. I will visit him soon.

I saw a strange thing today. Some rebels were being arrested. One of them pulled the pin on a grenade. He took himself and the captain of the command with him. Now, soldiers are paid to fight; the rebels aren't.

What does that tell you?

They could win.

Oh, Michael. Michael, you are blind. It wasn't a miscarriage. It was an abortion. An abortion, Michael. Just like our marriage is an abortion. Something that's unholy and evil. I didn't want your son, Michael! I wouldn't bring another one of you sons into this world! It was an abortion, Michael! It was a son Michael! A son! And I had it killed because this must all end! [Michael's eyes begin to bulge] I know now that it's over. I knew it then. There would be no way, Michael... no way you could ever forgive me not with this Sicilian thing that's been going on for 2,000 years. [Michael loses control. He slaps Kay across the face. She falls onto the couch]

Bitch! You won't take my children!

I will.

You WON'T TAKE MY CHILDREN!

They're my children too.

You straightened my brother out?

I'm everybody's Daddy.

No muss, no fuss. Evelyn Wood School of Speed Revenge.

(On the telephone with ex-wife late at night) Denise?I have to talk to you. I think I have appendicitis. (click)

[on the telephone with ex-wife late at night] Denise? I have to talk to you. I think I have appendicitis. [click]

I made confession, Connie. I confessed my sins.

Why Michael, that's not like you. You don't have to confess your sins to a stranger.

It was the man. A good man. A true priest. He changed things.

Thunder can't hurt! Harmless noise! Bullshit! Deceitful little fuck! Altobello! You fuck!

"Politics and crime. They're the same thing…"

Politics and crime. They're the same thing?

Kay. I never expected you.

No, I know, I know. But I'm here.

I'm glad.

You know? This is the first time I've seen you look so helpless.

Eh -- not so bad really. I feel, I'm getting, wiser now.

Yeah?

Oh yeah.

The sicker you get the wiser you get huh?

When I'm dead, I'm gonna be really smart.

We should kill him before he kills --

No! (then) Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment.

No! [then] Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment.

(leaning over to Vincent) Never let anyone know what you're thinking.

[leaning over to Vincent] Never let anyone know what you're thinking.

(then, to Al Neri and the group) All right, let's get a, let's get a message to Joey Zasa. I respect what he's done. The new overthrows the old, it's natural.

Dad I want this to bring me closer to you. <Michael and Mary embrace.>

I would burn in hell, to keep you safe.

Yes -- you will take control. We’ll gladly put you at the helm of our little fleet. But our ships, must all sail in the same direction. Otherwise, who can say how long, your stay with us will last? It’s not personal, it’s only business. You should know, Godfather.

Very well. You want to do business with me. I will, do business, with you. <Michael leaves, and is walking outside with B.J. Harrison and Vincent.>

Very well. You want to do business with me. I will, do business, with you.

We’re back to the Borgias!

We're back to the Borgias!

It's done.

Because I can't do it any more.

It doesn't matter. Vincent knows what to do. Come on outside. Take a rest and -- and don't think about it.

All I do is think about it.

I am your son. Command me on all things.

Give up my daughter. That's the price you pay, for the life you choose. <Vincent nods. Michael goes to the door and motions for Calo, Al Neri and Armand to come in.> Nephew, from this moment on, call yourself Vincent Corleone.

Dad I want this to bring me closer to you. <Michael and Mary embrace.>

I would burn in hell, to keep you safe.

Don Corleone. I need your help. And not just to light a little candle. My, gift, was to be able to persuade people, to give, to the Holy Church. Then, Rome decides, to put me in charge of the Vatican bank. But I was never a true banker. Mais á culpa, I trusted my friends.

Friendship and money – oil and water…

Indeed. But these, friends, use the good name of the Church, to feed their greed. If money was lost, then I am to blame. Oh, if only prayer could, pay off our seven-hundred million dollar deficit.

Seven-hundred and sixty-nine million.

It's done.

Because I can't do it any more.

It doesn't matter. Vincent knows what to do. Come on outside. Take a rest and -- and don't think about it.

What has Joey Zasa got to with anything, Joey Zasa’s a potzle. Joey Zasa. All right, you are what you are. It’s your nature. You stay close to me. You don’t do anything. You keep your mouth shut, and your eyes open. And you do what I tell you. Understand?

Understood.

Tony knows that you killed Fredo. <This catches Michael off guard. He gathers himself.>

What did you come here for?

I came here to protect my son. I didn’t come here to see you disguised by your church. I think that was a shameful ceremony.

I spent my life protecting my son. I spent my life protecting my FAMILY!

Let’s be reasonable, Okay? That’s your big thing isn’t it Michael. Reason. Backed up by murder.

Oh, God -- You hate me, you hate me.

No, I don’t hate you. I dread you.

I did what I could Kay. To protect all of you, from the horrors of this world.

But you became my horror.

I will never work for you. I have bad memories.

Every family has bad memories.

I will always be your son. But I will never have anything to do with your business.

The baby I lost...

I know what it meant... and I'm prepared to make it up to you. I will make changes; I can. (he clenches his fist tightly) I CAN change; that I have learned, that I have the strength to change... And we have another child, a boy... and you'll forget the miscarriage.

It wasn't a miscarriage. And you with your cunning, couldn't you figure it out! It was an abortion; an abortion, like our marriage is an abortion, something unholy and evil. I don't want your son; I wouldn't bring another of your sons into this world. An abortion, Michael... it was a son, and I had it killed, but this must all end!

It occurred to me: the police are paid to fight, and the Rebels are not.

Was it a boy or a girl?

Mike, at three and a half...

What is it, can't you give me straight answers anymore!

Was it a boy or a girl?

Mike, at three and a half...

What is it, can't you give me straight answers anymore!

No Tom, just listen. All my people are businessmen; their loyalty is based on that. One thing I learned from my father is to try to think as the people around you think...and on that basis, anything is possible. Fredo has a good heart, but he is weak...and stupid, and stupid people are the most dangerous of all. I've kept you out of things, Tom, because I've always known that your instincts were legitimate, and I wanted you to know very little of things that would make you an accomplice, for your own protection. I never blamed you for the setbacks the family took under Sonny; I know you were in a position of limited power, and you did your best to advise and caution him. What I am saying is that now, for how long I do not know, you will be the Don. If what I think has happened is true; I will leave tonight, and absolutely no one will know how to contact me. And even you are not to try to reach me unless it is absolutely necessary. I give you complete power: over Neri... Fredo, everyone. I am trusting you with the lives of my wife and children, and the future of this family, solely resting on your judgment and talent.

My client, the honorable Henry T. Fleming [now yelling] should go RIGHT to FUCKING JAIL - the son of a bitch is GUILTY!

I knew that Santino was going to have to go through all this. And Fredo -- well -- (then, after he sits besides Michael) -- Fredo was -- well -- But I never -- I never wanted this for you. I work my whole life, I don't apologize, to take care of my family. And I refused -- to be a fool -- dancing on the string, held by all those -- bigshots. I don't apologize -- that's my life -- but I thought that -- that when it was your time -- that -- that you would be the one to hold the strings. Senator - Corleone. Governor - Corleone, or something...

Well -- this wasn't enough time, Michael. Wasn't enough time...

Mike! You don't come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Greene like that!

Fredo -- you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.

My father made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

What was that?

Luca Brasi held a gun to his head, and my father assured him that either his brains -- or his signature -- would be on the contract. That's a true story. That's my family, Kay. It's not me.

Fuck Gaspar Gomez! And fuck the fucking Diaz brothers! Fuck them all! What they ever do for us? I buried those cockroaches!

When they come, they come at what you love.

They say, "If you love the garden of a man, you got to love the man"

They say, 'If you love the garden of a man, you got to love the man'.

They say, 'If you love the garden of a man, you got to love the man.'

When a law is deemed immoral by you, you must disobey it.

I know it was you [Fredo]. You broke my heart. YOU BROKE MY HEART.

Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.
