The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

There was this kid I grew up with -- he was younger than me. Sorta looked up to me -- you know. We did our first work together -- worked our way out of the street. Things were good, we made the most of it. During Prohibition -- we ran molasses into Canada -- made a fortune -- you father, too. As much as anyone, I loved him -- and trusted him. Later on he had an idea -- to build a city out of a desert stop-over for GI's on the way to the West Coast. That kid's name was Moe Green -- and the city he invented was Las Vegas. This was a great man -- a man of vision and guts. And there isn't even a plaque -- or a signpost -- or a statue of him in that town! Someone put a bullet through his eye. No one knows who gave the order -- when I heard it, I wasn't angry; I knew Moe -- I knew he was head-strong, talking loud, saying stupid things. So when he turned up dead -- I let it go. And I said to myself, this is the business we've chosen -- I didn't ask who gave the order -- because it had nothing to do with business!

I have 2 favorite tied:
-It's not personal Sonny, it's strictly business.
-Don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again, ever.

"Bonasera... Bonasera... What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? Had you come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And that by chance if an honest man such as yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you."

The same as De Niro "keep your friends close but keep your enermies closer"

Success is nothing more than taking advantage of an opportunity.

There is no way I can narrow it down to just one. I do like Fredo's baothouse rant, though.
"Taken care of me, your my kid brother, and you take care of me? Did you ever think about that, huh? Did you ever once think about that? Send Fredo off to do this, send Fredo off to do that, let Fredo take care of some Mickey Mouse nightclub somewhere, send Fredo to pick somebody up at the airport! I'm your older brother Mike, and I was stepped over![Thats the way Pop wanted it] It aint the way I wanted it. I can handle things, I'm not like everyone says, like dumb. I'm smaht and I want respect!"
Now my fingers are tired wink

Hello all!

My favorite quotes from the Godfather movies are:

"Michael Francis Rizzi -- do you renounce Satan?
I do renounce him."

"Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."

"Fredo, you're nothing to me now; not a brother, not a friend. I don't want to know you, or what you do."

"My name is Michael Corleone...There are people who'd pay a lot of money for that information... But then your daughter would lose a father...
instead of gaining a husband"


Col tempo la foglia di gelso diventa seta.

As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster. - Henry Hill

Hi everyone.

I am a new member. I joined a couple of days ago but due to work commitments I've been unable to post till now.

Anyway, my favourite quote is Sonny's. Badda-beep, badda-bap, badda-bip, badda-boop. Not exactly intellectual or deep meaning, but it always makes me smile smile

Looking forward to meeting you all
PK

My fave quotes would have to be.

"Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer" I practice this in my every day routine.

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

Yeah, that one's my favotite. I like it when Michael tells Fredo, "Don't you ever take sides against the family again."

Just thought I would drag this post back up smile

My favourite quote from the trilogy would have to be:

"If anything in this life is certain; If history has taught us anything, it's that you can kill anyone." ]

And

"Bada Bing!"

i wish i could remember the exact words but i can't, it's when Michael goes to Fredo at the party after he's found out he has betrayed him. and he grabs him by the face and tells him he broke his heart

With Geary in Fredo's Brothel
As Tom Hanks says in the flick "You've Got Mail," The Godfather is the I Ching of modern mankind. There are so many quotes that resonate, it has become almost like Shakespeare. I have read the positings on this topic, and I agree with everyone, so I will choose a few different ones which I do not think have been posted on this thread.

Godfather I - "Call Bonasera -- we need him now."

""How's the Eye-talian food in this place?"
"Try the veal. Its the best in the city."

"You spoiled Guinea brat!"

GFII - "And that kid's name was Moe Green."

"Vito Andolini --- and this is for you!"

"Its hard being a son, Fredo."

GFIII - "I'll give you a hint....he's an Italian."

"Our ships must sail in the same direction."

"Take a train to Rome....light a candle for the Archbishop."


"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!"

"I stood in the courtroom like a fool."

"I am Constanza: Lord of the idiots."

"Vito Andolini --- and this is for you!"
it should be Antonio Andolini

A quote i like which is not in the trilogy but in the book went somethin like "Accidents dont happen to people who take accidents as personal insults" this would be where the scence when micheal explains how hell kill solozzo and tom would say it wasnt personal it was business, then mike argues and says everything is personal, and that wat made the Don so great, he took everythin personall and then he says that quote.

Wow...so much to choose from. I think I like the quote from Vito Corleone where he shows a rare flash of humor when he shakes Johnny Fontaine and says, "You can act like a man! Is this how you turn out...some Hollywood finnochio...'Godfather (pretends to cry as Hagen snickers) what should I do? What should I do?'"


"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!"
