Don Corleone: I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.

Don Corleone: Someday, and that day may never come, I will call upon you
to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift on my
daughter's wedding day.

Jack Woltz: Johnny Fontane will never get that movie. I don't care how many dego, wop, guinea, greaseball goombas come out of the woodwork.
Tom Hagen: I'm German-Irish.
Woltz: Well, let me tell you something, my kraut, mick friend. I'm gonna make so much trouble for you you won't know what hit you.
Tom: Mr. Woltz, I'm a lawyer. I'm have not threatened you.
Woltz: I know every big lawyer in New York. Who the hell are you?.

Woltz: She was beautiful! She was young, she was innocent! She was the greatest piece of ass I've ever had, and I've had 'em all over the world!

Sonny: What the hell is this?

Tessio: It's a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes.

Don Corleone: But I'm a superstitious man. And if some unlucky accident should befall him...if he should get shot in the head by a police officer, or if he should hang himself in his jail cell, or if he's struck by a bolt of lightning, then I'm going to blame some of the people in this room. And that I do not forgive. But that aside, let me say that I swear, on the souls of my grandchildren, that I will not be the one who will break the peace we have made here today.

Don Corleone: I have a sentimental weakness for my children and I spoil them as you can see. They talk when they should listen.

Sollozzo: I don't like violence, Tom. I'm a businessman. Blood is a big expense.

Clemenza: Leave the gun. Take the cannollis.

Sonny: How's Pauley?
Clemenza: Oh, Pauley. You won't see him no more.

Sonny: Whatya gonna do? Nice college boy huh? Don't wanna get mixed up in the family business? Now you wanna gun down a police officer because he slapped you in the face a little bit, huh? Whatya think this is the army, where you shoot 'em a mile away? You gotta get up close like this.. badaBING! you blow their brains all over your nice Ivy League suit. C'mere... you're taking this very personal.

Sonny: Clemenza, I want somebody good, and I mean very good, to plant that gun. I don't want my brother comin' outta that toilet with just his dick in his hands, alright?

Michael: My father's no different than any other powerful man. Any man who's responsible for other people, like a Senator, or a President.
Kay: Do you know how naive you sound?
Michael: Why?
Kay: Senators and Presidents don't have men killed.
Michael: Oh. Who's being naive, Kay?

Don Corleone: I never wanted this for you. I worked 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 big shots. I don't apologize, that's my life. But I thought that when it was your time that you would be the one to hold the strings. Senator Corleone. Governor Corleone. Somethin'. Michael: Another pezzonovante.

Don Corleone: Well.. there just wasn't enough time, Michael. Wasn't enough time.
Michael: We'll get there Pop. We'll get there.

Moe Green: You sonofabitch. Do you know who I am? I'm Moe Green! I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders.

Michael: Fredo, you're my older brother... and I love you...but don't ever take sides, with anyone, against the family again. Ever.
