What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you’d come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you.
Someday, and that day may never come, I’ll call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day accept this justice as a gift.
I’m a superstitious man, and if some unlucky accident should befall Michael, if he is to be shot in the head by a police officer, or be found hung dead in a jail cell… or if he should be struck by a bolt of lightning - then I’m going to blame some of the people in this room; and then I do not forgive.
My offer is this: nothing! Not even the fee for the gambling license, which I would appreciate if you would put up personally.
J’ai toujours refusé d’être un pantin qui danse sur un fil tiré par de gros bonnets… Je voudrais que quand mon heure viendra, ce soit toi qui tires les ficelles.
