The godfather five families bot7/1/2023 After all, we are not Communists.ĭon Corleone : I hoped that we would come here and reason together. Certainly, he can present a bill for such services. Don Corleone had all the judges and the politicians in New York and he must share them.He must let us draw the water from the well. It's not like the old days when we could do anything we want. And I believe that then - and I believe that now.ĭon Barzini : Times have changed. They're gonna refuse to help us when it comes to narcotics. Even the police departments have helped us in the past with gambling and other things. ![]() I mean, it's not like gambling or liquor, even women, which is something that most people want nowadays and it's forbidden to the church. When did I ever refuse, except one time? And why? Because I believe this drug business is gonna destroy us in the years to come.

I don't know. 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. Is vengeance gonna bring your son back to you and my boy to me? I forgot all the vengeance in my son. We don't have to give assurances as if we were lawyers. As time goes by and his position becomes stronger, will he attempt any individual vendetta? Don Barzini: Look, we are all reasonable men here. Tattaglia: But I must have strict assurance from Corleone. The traffic in drugs will be permitted, but controlled, and Don Corleone will give up protection in the East - and there will be the peace. And as a reasonable man, I'm willing to do whatever's necessary to find a peaceful solution to these problems.
