1. The saddest thing in life is wasted talent. You've got all the talent in the world but if you do not do the right thing, then nothing happens, when you do tight, guess what, good things happen.
Life is the most There is nothing sad than a waste of talent. If you don't do the right thing, you won't succeed even if you have the talent of the world, and vice versa.

2.C to the father: You guy's bigger than my guy up there, but my guy's bigger than yours down here
.

3.It was great to be catholic and go to confession, you could start over every week.
As a Catholic and go to confession is helpful, because you can start over weekly (God forgive your sins )

4. Sonny: Sometimes hurting somebody ain't the answer. First of all is he a good friend of yours?
S: Sometimes violence cannot solve the problem. First of all, is he your friend?
C: No, I don't even like him. C: No, I don't even like him
.
S: There's your answer right there. It costs 20 dollars to get rid of him. He's never gonna bother you again. He's never gonna ask you for money again. He's out of your life for 20 dollars. You got off cheap.
S: You see, you spent 20 yuan to buy it for life without him being disturbed. He never dared to bother you again and borrowed money from you. He disappeared from your life for 20 yuan, you made a lot of money!

S: Don't worry about Louis Dumps. Nobody cares. Worry about yourself, your family, the people that are important to you. Don't worry about Louis Dumps. Nobody cares
. You should think more about yourself, for your family and those who are important to you.
...S: the people that see me everyday that are on my side, they feel safe, because they know I'm close. that gives them more reason to love me. but the people that want to do otherwise, they think twice , because they know I'm close. That gives them more reason to fear me.
Look at those doglegs who are by my side all day, they feel safe, because they know I'm here, so they love me more. But those who hate me, they have to think twice before doing things, thinking that I am very close to them, which makes them even more afraid of me.
C: Is it better to be loved or feared
?
S:that's a good question. It's nice to be both but it's very difficult. But if I had my choice, I'd rather be feared. Fear lasts longer than love. Friendships bought with money mean nothing.You see how it is. I make a joke, every body laughs. I know I'm funny, but I'm not that funny. It's fear keeps them loyal to me. The trick is not to be hated. I treat my men good. But if I give them too much, I'm not needed . I give them just enough where they need me but do not hate me.
this issue regressed, if they can simultaneously be loved or to be feared, then take the best, but hard to do so. If I were to choose, I would rather let them think I was terrified. Because fear lasts longer than love. The friendships that money brings are all shit, as you can see, I tell a joke and everyone is happy. I know I am humorous sometimes, but I know I am not so humorous. It is fear that makes everyone loyal to me. In fact, the key is not to make the other person feel scared. I am very good to my people, but if I treat them too well, they don’t need me. I give them just the right sweetness, and then they need me and don’t dare to hate me. I.
