Some Great Quotes from movie “The GodFather”

The Godfather (1972)  is my all time favorite movie. Dialogues from this movie are really inspirational. Many of the crime films which were released recently are inspired from this movie.  Based on Puzo's 1969 novel of the same name, the film stars Marlon Brando and Al Pacino as the leaders of a powerful New York crime family.



Here are few best quotes from the movie The Godfather:
