More quotes by 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
My rackets are run on strictly American lines and they're going to stay that way.
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
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 like any other man. All I do is supply a demand.
Al Capone
This American system of ours,call it Americanism,call it capitalism,call it what you will,gives each and every one of us a great opportunity if we seize it with both hands and make the most of it.
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
Prohibition has made nothing but trouble
Al Capone
I have built my organization upon fear.
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
Now I know why tigers eat their young.
Al Capone
Vote early and vote often.
Al Capone
A smile can get you far, but a smile with a gun can get you further.
Al Capone
Hell must be a pretty swell spot, because the guys that invented religion have sure been trying hard to keep everybody else out.
Al Capone
Capitalism gives all of us a great opportunity if we seize it with both hands and hang on to it.
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 don't even know what street Canada is on.
Al Capone
I've been accused of every death except the casualty list of the World War.
Al Capone
You can do more with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word.
Al Capone
