"And so I tells the guy, 'you needs to see more of the famiglia in things'. He looks at me like I gotta lobster comin' outta my mouth, so I slapped 'im on the back oftha head to remind him not to be so thick."
"Whatt'd he say?"
"Cosa si aspetta smusso persino leggere!"
"Dumb guinea bastardo, wouldn't know whetta he had two hands if he couldn't hold'em up in fronta his own damn face!"
"Yeah don' I know it! If he wadn't family I'da had his brain removed tru' his nose..."

"There was no obligation more sacred than blood, that it came before country, church, wife, woman, and money" (p74, Puzo's: The Fortunate Pilgrim).
