“What do you wanna do, shoot me? Shoot me! But I’m not gonna answer your questions. You gave me 15 years already, so do whatever you want.” ~ Genovese Underboss Venero ‘Benny Eggs’ Mangano, after being called as a witness at Vincent Gigante’s trial against his will.

GBB's very own resident mafioso, Don Calogero, teaches us an ancient Italian proverb for today...

"Invecchiare e' una maledizione, e una benedizione, allo stesso tempo."



*Which, when translated into English, means...

"Getting old is a curse, and a blessing, all at the same time."

Confucius say…

“Envious and weak people, intimidated by your persona, will sometimes talk bad about you in the hope that others won’t find you so appealing.”

The level of immaturity of certain people is actually comical (and sad,) all at the same time.

"A wolf that comes to you in sheep's clothing, is still a wolf."

My immigrant Sicilian grandfather used to remind us that….

Your terrible job is the dream of the unemployed...

Your little house is the dream of the homeless...

Your bright smile is the dream of the depressed...

Your good health is the dream of the ill...

…So don’t let difficult times make you forget all your blessing!
