Which one of the classic quotes of the old godfather Vito Don Corleone in "The Godfather" do you like?

The old godfather said to Mike: "I don't want to be involved in the affairs of the family the last thing. I hope you can become governor, congressman or something in the future, so you don't need to be manipulated by big people anymore." This sentence is the deepest feeling, whether it is capital Doctrine or socialism, or even a dictatorship society, power is always controlling us, so the ultimate goal of people's struggle is not to be manipulated, but if they are not manipulated, they must manipulate others. No one can escape this whirlpool. It is the godfather and the whole family for several generations. The sorrow of people is also the sorrow of the world.
