    Connie: Now they'll fear you.

    Michael Corleone: Maybe they should fear you.

  • Joey Zasa: The Miucci association and elected you their Italian American man of the year.

    [hands Michael a plaque]

    Michael Corleone: Oh, Miucci. Who's Miucci?

    Joey Zasa: He's the Italian American who invented the telephone. He did it one year before Alexander Graham Bell.

    Michael Corleone: Oh. And this is the reason you have come to my home on this day.

    Joey Zasa: I have a stone in my shoe, Mr. Corleone. A two-bit punk who works for me. Who thinks he's related to you. A bastard.

    Al Neri: He's here. Vincent Mancini. He's at the party.

    Michael Corleone: Well, bring him in.

    Joey Zasa: I think it's good that we talk. I have a problem. Now I have to find out if it is my problem or your problem.

    Michael Corleone: Joey, your business is your business. I have no interest, no percentages. I'm out.

    Joey Zasa: Good, then it is my problem.

    Connie: [Connie and Vincent enter] Michael, you know Vincent Mancini. Sonny's boy.

    Vincent Mancini: Hey, how you doin' Mr. Corleone.

    Michael Corleone: How you doing.

    Vincent Mancini: I'm doin' good. How you doin'?

    Michael Corleone: Good.

    Vincent Mancini: Nice party.

    Michael Corleone: Oh, you like it?

    Vincent Mancini: Yeah, I had to sneak in.

    Michael Corleone: Well, you dressed for it. What's the trouble between you and Mr. Joe Zasa?

    Vincent Mancini: Just trouble. I'll take care of it.

    Michael Corleone: That's foolish of you.

    Vincent Mancini: Foolish of me? It's a little foolish of this guy don't you think? Right? RIGHT!

    Michael Corleone: Temper like his father. Vincent, Mr. Joe Zasa now owns what used to be the Corleone family business in New York. Out of the kindness of his heart he gave you a job with his family. Contrary to my advice you took the job. I offered you something better. Something in the legitimate world. You turned me down. Now you both come to me with this bad blood. What do you expect me to do? Am I a gangster?

    Vincent Mancini: No, no, you're not a gangster, Uncle Mike.

    Connie: Michael, that's Papa's old neighborhood now it's a sewer. Zasa runs it like a disgrace the ladies told me.

  • Joey Zasa: I earned that territory with my talent. The commission gave it to me. You approved.

    Michael Corleone: Yes.

    Vincent Mancini: Hey, Uncle Mike, I'm just here for the party. I didn't come here to ask for help. I could just kill this bastard. He's the one who should be asking for help.

    Michael Corleone: Then kill him. What does this have to do with me?

    Vincent Mancini: Well, he's going around your back saying "fuck Michael Corleone." That's what it has to do with you.

    Vincent Mancini: [to Zasa] Say it to his face one time. ONE TIME!

    Joey Zasa: Mr. Corleone, all bastards are liars Shakespear wrote poems about them.

    Vincent Mancini: What am I gonna do with this guy. WHAT!

    Michael Corleone: Joey, if there is someone going around this city saying "fuck Michael Corleone" what do we do with a piece of shit like this? He's a fuckin' dog.

    Joey Zasa: Yes, if someone were to say such a thing they would not be a friend, they would be a dog.

    Michael Corleone: My interests don't conflict with Mr. Joe Zasa's.

    Vincent Mancini: Oh yes they do, Uncle Mike. More than you know.

    Connie: Michael, he needs your support!

    Vincent Mancini: Hey, Uncle Mike, don't make me work for this guy no more. I come work for you.

    Michael Corleone: For me? As what? A tough guy? I don't need tough guys. I need more lawyers. Joey, since we have no conflicts no debts I accept your tribute. I wish you well. Vincent, come make your peace with Mr. Joe Zasa.

    Joey Zasa: [Vincent hugs Zasa] Bastarde.

    Michael Corleone: [Vincent bites Zasa's ear and Zasa's is taken out of the office] Jesus! Shut it, shut it, shut it.

    Vincent Mancini: Hey Uncle Mike this wasn't the time for this. I mean, I know you're into bankers and Wall Street and your word is gold but I just want to protect you from this guy and your lawyers can't do that.

    Michael Corleone: But you can.

    Vincent Mancini: Yeah, I can.

    Michael Corleone: And why should I be afraid of Joe Zasa?

    Vincent Mancini: Because he knows you're keeping him from moving up in the commission. I say we make him dead. You give the word and I'll take care of it myself.

    Michael Corleone: Maybe you should come with me for a few weeks. See what happens. See how much you learn. Then, we'll talk about your future.

    Vincent Mancini: I won't let you down.

    Michael Corleone: Alright, go on.

  • Connie: Now they'll fear you. Michael.

    Michael Corleone: Maybe they should fear YOU!

  • Mo: I used to write poems. I'd write poems, right, instead of talking to people. Write poems, never show 'em to nobody.

    Maria: Why not?

    Mo: 'Cause I was embarrassed.

    Danny: 'Cause he thought he might kill somebody if they laughed at him.

    Maria: [laughs]

    Connie: He's serious.

  • Connie: So tell me, are you as good in bed as you are on that dance floor?

    Connie: [a few minutes later, after having danced together] So when is Connie going to get her answer?

    Tony Manero: You know, Connie, if you're as good in bed as you are on the dance floor, I'll bet you're one lousy fuck.

    Connie: Then how come they always send me flowers the next morning?

    Tony Manero: 'Cause most guys don't know a good fuck when they've had one. Or I dunno. Maybe they thought you was dead.

  • [last lines]

    Connie: Wake up, Number Thirty Seven.

  • Connie: Hey! Do you know that woman?

    John Klein: What woman?

    Connie: She just left. You didn't see her?

    John Klein: No.

    Connie: That's strange. She had long red hair, green eyes, real pretty. She was asking about you, John?

    John Klein: Did you see which way she went?

    Connie: No.

    John Klein: What did she say?

    Connie: She asked a lot of strange questions. You know, "What are you doing here?". And she asked if you were happy.

    John Klein: What did you say?

    Connie: I asked her for some I.D.

    John Klein: Did she give you any?

    Connie: No. She just said, "Tell John I'm sorry for ruining everything", and then she got up and walked out. What's wrong?

    [John shows her a picture of his DEAD wife]

    John Klein: Was it her? Was it her?

    Connie: That's your wife!

    John Klein: It was her.

  • Connie: I grew up right over that hill.

    John Klein: On a farm?

    Connie: Shucks, no! A real live house. Indoor plumbing and everything!

    John Klein: Sorry.

    Connie: We even had shoes for church and schoolin' and stuff!

  • Connie: [to John] You're a long way from D.C. What are you doing here?

  • Connie: Past few months people have been coming up to me and reporting that they've been seeing strange things. And I'm not talking about the town's speed freak. I'm talking about good, honest, churchgoing people. Now, I've known these folks my entire life and they seem downright embarrassed to be bringing it up.

    John Klein: Bringing what up?

    Connie: It's hard to explain.

  • Connie: There've been weird lights, strange phone calls, you. Seeing a UFO is one thing. What do you do when someone comes into your office and tells you they saw this in their backyard?

    [John stares at her]

    Connie: What is it?

    John Klein: My wife died two years ago. She saw something. Drew pictures. Who showed you this?

  • Connie: John, I can't call in sick just because you have a bad feeling about today.

  • John Klein: You know, when Mary got sick, I couldn't help thinking: "This isn't real. I can stop this. I know I can. I can stop this".

    Connie: No one can stop it, John. Listen to me. Planes are gonna crash. Earthquakes are going to happen. People you know and love are going to die. And no matter what that voice tells you, there's nothing you can do about it.

  • Connie: Do you realize what's happening to you?

  • Connie: You're alone, and that's just no way to be.

  • Connie: What are you thinking, Joe?

    Joe: Nothing. There's nothing I can do and I hate it.

    Connie: That's not true.

    Joe: Yeah, it is. You look at me like I can make a move. What are you thinking when you look at me like that? Don't you care? I don't know who I am, but I know what keeps me alive is restraint. Keeps me out of jail. Keeps me from hurting people. A mark of some fucked-up faith that there's a reason. A reason for all of this. A reason in most moments I shouldn't do what I wanna do. I do as I'm told. These men who bust their asses work like dogs - and I believe in them - but every day they hurt. They get old, they peel back... There's no frontier anymore. And I watch that boy, and I see someone who's... nothing like me, but... he's a child folks left behind. And he's on a fence, balanced right there.

    Connie: What do you want? What is it you want?

    Joe: Nothing.

    Connie: Just tell me what I can do. I like you.

    Joe: I like you, too, but what's the point in any of it? Fuck to this day. I mean, fuck to this day. It's all just gonna boil up and wash us away. Maybe you'll still be here. Maybe you won't.

  • Connie: Connie Wong. Always Wong, never Wight.

    [Zach looks up]

    Connie: Bad joke. I was born in Chinatown, lower east side.

    Zach: How old are you?

    Connie: I was born December 5th, four thousand six hundred and forty two, the Year of the Chicken.

  • Connie: Tapping's not my strongest point!

    Larry: I see that.

  • Sally Hyde: There's not enough beds. There's not enough staff. It''s really crowded and guys have to wait in line. They are just not prepared for the number of wounded guys that are being sent back.

    Martha Vickery: I don't think we are really clear at what you are asking us for, Sally?

    Sally Hyde: Well, it's what I said. I think we could do an article in the paper, you know, maybe using some of these photographs, interviewing some of the guys, maybe.

    Officer Wife: Isn't it difficult for the men to be around young women? When I joined Weight Watchers, I didn't want any candy around the house.

    Connie: I don't think that that's our function, Sally. It seems that we're more a Base gossip sheet. You know, fun and games for the fellas.

  • Jack: Don't worry, I'm a good swimmer.

    Connie: I knew you'd be good.

    Jack: I am for you.

  • Connie: I even imagined it with you.

    Jack: That's... yeah.

    Connie: In a bathtub, I imagined I was with you.

    Jack: You took a bath?

    Connie: No, I was in a bathtub imagining it was a pitch black night. We were in a bed in a spaceship flying through superspace.

    Jack: That... that's a long way off... space travel for tourists.

  • Katherine: A penny.

    Connie: For what?

    Katherine: You know what.

    Connie: For my thoughts? They're not worth it.

  • Connie: You don't understand. I mean, it's not what you think. I'd never do that. It's just... the boys are so nice to you. When we're together... I never knew it was gonna be so nice. Did you ever have a boy hold you close and sing to you? This one boy, Eddie... he sang to me right in my ear. And he held me so sweetly. June, don't you know how that feels? Just to be held like that?

  • Connie: Just because no one understands you doesn't make you an artist.

  • Connie: [entering the room holding a newspaper after Midge just dumped Haley as his manager] Hey, did you see what Walker says?

    [pauses when he notices their dour expressions]

    Connie: What's the matter?

    Haley: Nothing. This is a celebration. Midge is getting a shot at the title and he's got himself a new manager... a blonde.

  • Connie: Oh, this rotten business!

    Midge: Aw, lay off the business. It's like any other business, only here the blood shows.

  • Connie: And I know you, but I didn't know you up in that ring. You looked as if you wanted to kill that guy. As if you would've killed him if they hadn't stopped you.

    Midge: Is that bad?

    Connie: I don't know. I really don't know. But I kept thinking you weren't just hitting that guy in the ring. I kept thinking you were hitting a lot of guys. Different guys. All the guys that ever hurt you. I can't put my finger on it but there's... there's something wrong about that.

  • Midge: Look, you and me and the old lady. That's what's important. Nobody else.

    Connie: What's happened to you? Nothing stands in your way anymore, does it? First, Emma, then Johnny Dunne, now Haley. You've got your own way of destroying people and I don't want any part of it.

    Midge: Well, who's twisting your arm?

    Connie: Thanks, Midge. You've made it easy for me.

    [starts to leave]

    Midge: OK, go on. Feed yourself for a change. Find yourself a job. Go with Haley. Ah, take your bleeding heart out of here.

    Connie: It's not that, Midge. It's just that I wouldn't get much sleep at nights wondering when it was going to be my turn.

    [he exits]

  • Connie: [to Midge] Why did you do it? Because you were bored? Did you have to prove to yourself you're really the champion? You stink! You stink from corruption! You're worse than a murderer. You're a grave robber!

    [Midge knocks him down]

  • Connie: Why haven't you divorced him?

    Emma: I don't know. You know there's more loneliness than anything else in the world. You could be lonely in an awful lot of places - movies, dance halls, in your own room. People are funny.

    [she looks at her wedding ring]

    Emma: One little piece of cheap gold can almost make you believe things are different than they really are. What do you want, Connie? Does Midge want a divorce? He can have it!

    [she cries and leaves]

  • Connie: You still love him. You know you do.

    Emma: Do I? I don't think so.

    Connie: Love isn't something you can put on or take off like an overcoat, you know.

  • Connie: Hey, you're crazy. You don't know anything about boxing. You'll get your ears knocked off.

    Midge: Listen, for 35 bucks, I'd get my head knocked off.

  • Connie: [taking the high road about Midge to a reporter] He was a champion. He went out like a champion. He was a credit to the fight game until the very end.

  • Connie: [inspecting classroom, Connie describes scene to blind Cecelia] Classroom, small. Open space in the middle. Pentagram in the centre.

    Cecilia: What kind of Pentagram? Ordinary run of the mill or second-coming apocalypse?

    Connie: It's pretty.

  • Connie: [Screaming] Ahhhhhhh!

    Harry Stonehouse: [Annoyed] Now what?

    Connie: A spider!

    David Prade: Oh, it's quite harmless... unless you're a male spider. This is a female.

    Connie: You sure have good eyesight!

    David Prade: No, the male is always small, and, in case you're interested, he gets eaten by the female after he has performed his necessary function.

    Baroness de la Vailion: [In French] Ooo lala!

    David Prade: Ah, you know, women tend to do the same thing.

    Baroness de la Vailion: I must say I have never tried it.

    David Prade: [laughs] I mean mentally and psychologically.

    Denise Colby: You've obviously talked to a lot of spiders.

    David Prade: No, but I've talked to men, and, like spiders, many of them enjoy being eaten psychologically.

    Harry Stonehouse: [Alan seems to react negatively to this last remark] You can take me off the list.

    David Prade: Oh, some fight against it. It's a mechanism of this sort, a bid to stave off being eaten by women which operates in certain individuals.

    [Alan again appears to take Prade's remark personally]

    Denise Colby: Is that why you're a bachelor?

    [Everybody laughs]

  • [Kay finds his girlfriend bound and gagged in a closet]

    Connie: Do you want to ruin everything?

    Kay Kyser: But she'll smother in there! There's not enough air.

    [Connie opens and closes the door several times]

    Connie: That ought to hold her.

  • Connie: [having become a 3rd wheel] You know, I see a guy over there who's just cute enough to catch my interest, and just drunk enough to think like wise. So excuse me...

  • Babe Stewart: Do your eyes bother you?

    Connie: No. Why?

    Babe Stewart: They bother me!

  • Connie: You'd be lovely to have around, just to sprinkle the flowers with your personality.

  • Connie: Just a New York cowboy aren't you? Passing through and giving a little small town girl her big moment.

  • Connie: The girl who lands him will say no and put an anchor on it... But isn't it tough when all you can think of is yes?

  • Connie: [to Babe about the lake party] It's too lonesome. No subways. No Elevators. None of the rush or noise of the city.

    [Dreamily]

    Connie: Just pale moon, quiet lake, soft breeze, hardly rustling the pine leaves...

    [Snaps back to reality and looks at Babe]

    Connie: You'd be bored to death.

  • Connie: Oh, I've been busy leading my usual life of sin.

  • Connie: No, there's nothing wrong, cause there's nothing right.

  • Connie: Well, what's been happening that's exciting? Did the Drug Store get in the banana flavored ice cream yet?

  • Connie: No, George, I'm not sore at you. I wish I were, then there'd be some hope. Sure, I like you, George; but, where do we go from there?

  • Connie: Well, would you like Shakespeare?

    Babe Stewart: Oh, Shakespeare's all right. But, you know how it is. Some nights you just don't feel like Shakespeare.

    Connie: No.

  • Connie: You could be nice. Try it sometime.

    Babe Stewart: I might even be nice if you liked it.

    Connie: You write the words and the music, don't you?

    Babe Stewart: Clever girl.

    Connie: Yes, I thought I told you that.

  • Babe Stewart: See you at nine o'clock.

    Connie: Sure of yourself, aren't you?

    Babe Stewart: I wouldn't be if I was sure of you.

    Connie: I have a date. I have a steady date, every night - with my bed.

  • Connie: That's the freshest specimen that ever stepped in this library. And he asked me to go out with him! Is he looking?

    Mattie: No.

    Connie: You sure?

    Mattie: Ah-huh. You do want to go out with him, don't you Connie?

    Connie: He is nice, isn't he.

    Mattie: He's reading now.

    Connie: Make sure.

    Mattie: He's reading.

    Connie: He has lovely dimples, doesn't he? Did you notice? And when he smiles at you...

    Mattie: Oh, go ahead Connie.

  • Connie: Oh! You scared me. It's time to go. We'll be closing. It's nine o'clock.

    Babe Stewart: What do you do with all the hearts you break? Hmm?

    [long kiss]

  • Connie: [after a long kiss with Babe] You shouldn't have done that. I must go and you must go. See you in church.

  • Mrs. Randall: Connie, if you must go to the lake, for heaven's sake don't ask Mr. Stewart. Those hoodlums, drinking and card playing, he'll get the wrong impression of you!

    Connie: Well, I didn't ask him, mother.

    Mrs. Randall: Oh, no. You didn't ask: Quiet lake. Pale moon. Pine trees. Soft breezes.

  • Connie: What on earth are you doing way up here?

    Babe Stewart: Well, you invited me up, didn't you?

    Connie: Yes. But, I didn't think you'd accept.

    Babe Stewart: I never disappoint a lady.

    Connie: Oh, how thoughtful of you.

    Babe Stewart: Well, here I am.

  • Connie: You wouldn't ruin a ladies reputation, would you?

    Babe Stewart: No! No-no-no. No neighbors, have you? Mmm! Pajamas.

    Connie: Lounging pajamas.

    Babe Stewart: Oh, I'm glad you told me.

  • Babe Stewart: Now, let's talk this whole thing over.

    Connie: Well, why don't you say something?

    Babe Stewart: You're awfully sweet.

    Connie: You think so?

    Babe Stewart: Mm-hum. And that isn't all.

    Connie: What else?

    Babe Stewart: Oh, a lot of things.

  • Babe Stewart: It's very proper. We're dancing. Come on, you like this.

    Connie: Well, I hadn't thought about it. Will you give me till tomorrow to answer?

    [Babe squeezes Connie closer]

    Connie: Please, you don't interest me that way, really. Doesn't that hurt your pride?

    Babe Stewart: No. You're much too pretty.

  • Connie: Of course, I forgot. I promised Charlie I'd meet him at the dance.

    Babe Stewart: Certainly. Why don't you go?

    Connie: Because you fascinate me.

  • Connie: [Babe kisses Connie] You still refuse to be nice, don't you?

    Babe Stewart: All right. What does a nice guy do? Sit around and talk?

    Connie: Yes. I know some nice people who talk.

    Babe Stewart: Lovely evening, isn't it.

    Connie: Charming.

    Babe Stewart: You think it will rain tomorrow?

    Connie: Oh, it probably will. It's a holiday.

    Babe Stewart: Well, that takes care of the weather.

  • Babe Stewart: Why keep kidding around like this?

    Connie: I'm not kidding. Only, well, you just walk in and pick up a girl and walk out. Is that fair?

    Babe Stewart: No. No, you're right.

  • Connie: Why don't you be a sport? Why don't you give a girl a break? Why don't you take a chance?

    Babe Stewart: I don't get you?

    Connie: Have you ever gambled?

    Babe Stewart: Yeah, I'll gamble on anything.

    Connie: Why don't you gamble with me.

  • Connie: Oh, darling, why did we take such a fast train?

  • Connie: Darling, don't keep me waiting too long. I'm liable to get lonesome.

    Babe Stewart: All right, honey.

  • Babe Stewart: Honey, you knocked 'em dead tonight.

    Connie: What a break for little Connie. The only girl with four men. You can't deny I was the most popular woman there.

  • Connie: Are you a millionaire or something? Losing three thousand dollars, that way, in one evening. I never knew there was that much money in the world.

  • Connie: Oh, you look grand darling. If we weren't married, I'd sleep with you.

    Babe Stewart: Why don't you try it anyway.

  • Connie: I'm not trying to talk you into anything. I know you need a lot of rope. Whether you hang yourself or bring the rope back, I don't know. It's up to you.

  • Babe Stewart: I changed my mind about your staying here. You're going back to Glendale.

    Connie: But I like it here.

    Babe Stewart: I'm not going to leave you in this hard boiled town. You're going back to Glendale on the next train.

  • Babe Stewart: If I wasn't such a toughie, you'd get under my skin.

    Connie: You're not so tough.

    Babe Stewart: No? You don't think so, huh?
