More quotes by Al Capone
I'm a kind person, I'm kind to everyone, but if you are unkind to me, then kindness is not what you'll remember me for
Al Capone
When I sell liquor, it's bootlegging. When my patrons serve it on a silver tray on Lakeshore Drive, it's hospitality.
Al Capone
I am sick and tired of publicity. I want no more of it. It puts me in a bad light. I just want to be forgotten.
Al Capone
You accomplish more with a smile, a handshake, and a gun than you do with just a smile and a handshake.
Al Capone
I am going to St. Petersburg, Florida, tomorrow. Let the worthy citizens of Chicago get their liquor the best they can. I'm sick of the job-it's a thankless one and full of grief. I've been spending the best years of my life as a public benefactor.
Al Capone
I would rather be rich affluent and greedy and go to hell when I die, than live in poverty on this earth.
Al Capone
Bolshevism is knocking at our gates, we can't afford to let it in...We must keep America whole and safe and unspoiled. We must keep the worker away from red literature and red ruses we must see that his mind remains healthy.
Al Capone
They can't collect legal taxes from illegal money.
Al Capone
Don't you get the idea I'm one of those goddam radicals. Don't get the idea I'm knocking the American system.
Al Capone
I am just a businessman, giving the people what they want.
Al Capone
It's a racket. Those stock market guys are crooked.
Al Capone
A smile can get you far, but a smile with a gun can get you further.
Al Capone
Every time a boy falls off a tricycle, every time a black cat has gray kittens, every time someone stubs a toe, every time there's a murder or a fire or the marines land in Nicaragua, the police and the newspapers holler 'get Capone.'
Al Capone
They've hung everything on me except the Chicago fire.
Al Capone
Now I know why tigers eat their young.
Al Capone
You can do more with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word.
Al Capone
In this life all that I have is my word and my balls and I do not break them for nobody.
Al Capone
Some call it bootlegging. Some call it racketeering. I call it a business.
Al Capone
I got nothing against the honest cop on the beat. You just have them transferred someplace where they can't do you any harm. But don't ever talk to me about the honor of police captains or judges. If they couldn't be bought they wouldn't have the job.
Al Capone
All I ever did was supply a demand that was pretty popular.
Al Capone
