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.

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
Image
All I ever did was supply a demand that was pretty popular.
Al Capone
Image
Once in the racket you're always in it.
Al Capone
Image
When I sell liquor, it's bootlegging. When my patrons serve it on a silver tray on Lakeshore Drive, it's hospitality.
Al Capone
Image
I am just a businessman, giving the people what they want.
Al Capone
Image
Some call it bootlegging. Some call it racketeering. I call it a business.
Al Capone
Image
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
Image
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
Image
They've hung everything on me except the Chicago fire.
Al Capone
Image
Be careful who you call your friends. I’d rather have four quarters than one hundred pennies.
Al Capone
Image
I've lost a million and a half on the horses and dice in the last two years. And the funny part is, I still like 'em, and if someone handed me another million I'd put it right in the nose of some horse that looked good to me.
