More quotes by Al Capone
Capitalism is the legitimate racket of the ruling class.
Al Capone
You can do more with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word.
Al Capone
Prohibition has made nothing but trouble
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
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
Some call it bootlegging. Some call it racketeering. I call it a business.
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
I have spent the best years of my life giving people the lighter pleasures, helping them have a good time, and all I get is abuse, the existence of a hunted man.
Al Capone
Capitalism gives all of us a great opportunity if we seize it with both hands and hang on to it.
Al Capone
I am like any other man. All I do is supply a demand.
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
It's a racket. Those stock market guys are crooked.
Al Capone
Public service is my motto.
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
In this life all that I have is my word and my balls and I do not break them for nobody.
Al Capone
They can't collect legal taxes from illegal money.
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
We been on the road for 18 hours... I need a bath, some chow... and then you and me sit down, and we talk about who dies,eh?
Al Capone
I don't even know what street Canada is on.
Al Capone
