An astonishing admission from someone as self-deluded as Michael.
Vito was astonishing on all counts

The Godfather is Mafia leader Vito Corleone, benevolent despot who stops at nothing to gain and hold power

The Godfather is a friendly man, a "reasonable" man, a just man -- and the deadliest gang leader in the Cosa Nostra
