:55:01
Do you know why I live here?
:55:05
Availability.
:55:06
I want to stay close to everything.
:55:08
Being here,
I can see trouble immediately.

:55:11
Trouble is like a cancer.
:55:13
You have to get it early,
before it kills you.

:55:17
You have to cut it out.
:55:19
Capisci? Huh? Come on.
:55:22
You're worried about Louie Dumps.
Nobody cares. Nobody cares.

:55:27
Worry about yourself,
your family, and your friends.

:55:32
It comes down to availability.
:55:34
The people who see me every day,
that are on my side,

:55:38
they feel safe cos I'm close,
and they have more reason to love me.

:55:43
But those who want
to do otherwise think twice,

:55:46
cos they know I'm close,
and they have more reason to fear me.

:55:51
Is it better to be loved or feared?
:55:54
It's a good question.
:55:56
It's nice to be both, but it's difficult.
:55:59
If I had my choice,
I would rather be feared.

:56:04
Fear lasts longer than love.
:56:06
Friendships bought with money
mean nothing.

:56:09
If I make a joke, everybody laughes.
I'm funny, but not that funny.

:56:15
Fear keeps them loyal,
but the trick is not to be hated.

:56:19
I treat them good, but not too good.
:56:21
I give them enough to need me,
but they don't hate me.

:56:28
Don't forget this.
:56:32
Sonny,
I've got some beautiful veal today,

:56:35
and some nice linguini.
