"Generosity. That was my first mistake." "Experience must be our only guide; reason may mislead us." "Instagram is Twitter for people who can't read."

Well maybe if you spent forty minutes in a car with the old bint you might think differently Oli baby. I gave her my best Michael Corleone stare when she read out the bad news. Where does it say you can't kill a driving examiner? I'm talking about a crooked examiner, who got mixed up in the rackets and got what was coming to her. [/b] LOL 40min, thats why I love NY, mine was 5min, i passed and i drove with one hand the whole time

"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!" "I stood in the courtroom like a fool."

Arrange your drapes so no one can open them but you. Once you have searched someone for a weapon, don't let him go to the bathroom unattended. * Don't be showing off your prize horse to someone who is threatening you. * Never take sides with anyone against the family again....ever. *** Never eat canoli while watching an opera. *** When getting a massage, make sure the door is locked. **** If you have a witness in protective custody, check the bathroom out for sharp objects before he takes a bath.

I also learned how to do a wicked donkey imatation!!!! The Bull!!! "...you straightened my brother out??" "Give him a living, but never discuss the family business in front of him."

Never let someone you know to be a hired assassin double as your fishing boat captain. If you are a body guard and you "call in sick" the day there is an assassination attempt on your boss, don't show up for work again. Dont' let yourself go soft in the head by playing comedy with a young girl. You can act like a man, and don't turn out like some Hollywood finocchio saying, "Godfather, what can I do?" If there is a known plot to assassinate you, don't pause on your way to the car to see some guy imitating a donkey, or to listen to your daughter whine about her love life. Don't let someone give you a cup of tea right before bedtime.
