Bodhi5 quotes

This was never about money for us, it was about us against the system. That system that kills the human spirit. We stand for something. To those dead souls inching along the freeways in their metal coffins, we show them that the human sprit is still alive. — Bodhi · 1991 Just feel what the wave is doing. Then accept its energy.

Henry Hill4 quotes

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. — Henry Hill · 1990 For us to live any other way was nuts. Uh, to us, those goody-good people who worked shitty jobs for bum paychecks and took the subway to work every day, worried about their bills, were dead. I mean, they were suckers. They had no balls.

It was just all routine and you didn't even think about it. — Henry Hill · 1990 The way I saw it, everybody takes a beating sometime. — Henry Hill · 1990 We were goodfellas. Wiseguys. But Jimmy and I could never be made because we had Irish blood. It didn't even matter that my mother was Sicilian. To become a member of a crew you've got to be one hundred percent Italian so they can trace all your relatives back to the old country. See, it's the highest honor they can give you. It means you belong to a family and a crew. It means that nobody can fuck around with you. It also means you could fuck around with anybody just as long as they aren't also a member. It's like a license to steal. It's a license to do anything. — Henry Hill · 1990

Al Capone3 quotes

I grew up in a tough neighborhood and we used to say, "You can get further with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word." — Al Capone · 1987 What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Baseball! A man...a man stands alone at a plate. This is the time for what? For individual achievement. There he stands alone. But in the field, what? Part of a team. Looks, throws, catches, hustles. Part of one big team. Bats himself the live-long day, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and so on. If his team don't field...what is he? You follow me? No one. — Al Capone · 1987 People are gonna drink! You know that, I know that, we all know that, and all I do is act on that. And all this talk of bootlegging—what is bootlegging? On a boat, it's bootlegging. On Lake Shore Drive, it's hospitality. — Al Capone · 1987

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast. — Jules Winnfield · 1994

This is the American way. — Nino Brown · 1991

In Vegas, everybody's gotta watch everybody else. Since the players are looking to beat the casino, the dealers are watching the players. The box men are watching the dealers.
