I don't want to comment on half a word

Although it was the fourth time I saw the Godfather, I still read all three in one go.
As a film that has been written for almost half a century and the "classic" has been said hundreds of millions of times as a review, I don't want to comment even a word.
I just opened a text and memorized some useful words while reading it, and listed it out: I will

give him a condition that he cannot refuse.
I will reason with them.
A man who
does not take care of his family is not a man who does not spend time with his family. Men are not real men.
Women and children can be careless, but men can’t
think about it from the perspective of others. It’s
impossible for a person to know in advance when he needs a friend.
Don’t say it’s impossible. Nothing is impossible.
Don’t let it forever.
Don’t talk too much when others know what you’re thinking , otherwise others will know what you’re thinking.
Let your friends underestimate your strengths, and let your enemies overestimate your weaknesses. Stay
closer to your friends, but closer to your enemies. so you can know him better
if a man betrayed him once, he would betray a second time
after the first request was refused, do not ever put forward the second requirement
do not hate your enemy, it will affect your judgment
life is so beautiful

The Godfather quotes

  • Capt. McCluskey: I thought I got all you Guinea hoods locked up! What the hell are you doing here?

    Michael: What happened to the men who were guarding my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: I pulled them guys off of here, eh, now get away from this hospital!

    Michael: I'm not leaving until you put some guards around my father's room.

    Capt. McCluskey: Phil, take him in!

    Cop with Capt. McCluskey outside hospital: The kid's clean Captain, he's a war hero! He's never been mixed up with the rackets...

    Capt. McCluskey: Goddamn it Phil, I said take him in!

    Michael: What's the Turk paying you to set up my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Patrolmen] Take a hold of him. Stand him up. Stand him up straight.

    [punches Michael and breaks his jaw]

  • Sollozzo: [to Michael, in Sicilian] I am sorry. What happened to your father was business. I have much respect for your father. But your father, his thinking is old-fashioned. You must understand why I had to do that. Now let's work through where we go from here.

    [Michael tries speaking in Sicilian, but can't express himself properly, so with a quick look at McCluskey they both switch to English]

    Michael: What I want... what's most important to me is that I have a guarantee: no more attempts on my father's life.

    Sollozzo: What guarantees could I give you, Mike? I'm the hunted one. I've missed my chance. You think too much of me, kid. I am not that clever. All I want is a truce.

    Michael: I have to go to the bathroom. Is that all right?

    Capt. McCluskey: You gotta go, you gotta go.

    [Michael gets up, but a suspicious Sollozzo probes Michael's crotch, to Michael's offense]

    Capt. McCluskey: I frisked him. He's clean.

    Sollozzo: Don't take too long...

    [Michael heads to the bathroom]

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Sollozzo] I frisked a thousand young punks.
