:01:02
-Yeah?
-Should I crack him one, or what?
:01:06
What's the matter? What have I said?
:01:09
Sometimes hurting
somebody ain't the answer.
:01:11
Is he a good friend?
:01:13
Nah, I don't even like him.
:01:15
Don't even like him.
Well, there's your answer.
:01:18
Look, it cost you $20 to get rid of him.
:01:21
He'll never bother you,
or ask you for money again.
:01:25
He's out of your life for $20.
You got off cheap, forget it.
:01:28
You're always right.
:01:30
Yeah, I'm always right.
:01:31
If I was always right I wouldn't
have done ten years in the joint.
:01:34
What did you do every day?
:01:36
There's only three things you can do.
:01:39
Lift weights, play cards,
or get into trouble.
:01:41
What did you do?
:01:43
Me? I read.
:01:45
What did you read?
:01:47
-Ever hear of Machiavelli?
-Who?
:01:49
Machiavelli. He's a famous
writer from 500 years ago.
:01:53
Availability, he always said.
:01:56
-Availability?
-That's right.
:01:58
Listen to me.
:02:00
Do you know why I live here?
:02:03
Availability.
:02:05
I want to stay close to everything.
:02:07
Being here,
I can see trouble immediately.
:02:10
Trouble is like a cancer.
:02:12
You have to get it early,
before it kills you.
:02:15
You have to cut it out.
:02:18
Capisci? Huh? Come on.
:02:21
You're worried about Louie Dumps.
Nobody cares. Nobody cares.
:02:26
Worry about yourself,
your family, and your friends.
:02:31
It comes down to availability.
:02:34
The people who see me every day,
that are on my side,
:02:38
they feel safe cos I'm close,
and they have more reason to love me.
:02:43
But those who want
to do otherwise think twice,
:02:46
cos they know I'm close,
and they have more reason to fear me.
:02:51
Is it better to be loved or feared?
:02:55
It's a good question.
:02:57
It's nice to be both, but it's difficult.
:02:59
If I had my choice,
I would rather be feared.
