Tony
- Tony Camonte: Listen, Little Boy, in this business there's only one law you gotta follow to keep out of trouble: Do it first, do it yourself, and keep on doing it.
- Tony Camonte: You see that?
- [a sign outside the window reads: THE WORLD IS YOURS. COOK TOURS]
- Tony Camonte: Someday I look at that sign and I say, "Okay, she's mine."
- Tony Camonte: I don't know nothin'. I don't see nothin'. I don't hear nothin'. When I do I don't tell the cops. Understand?
- Francesca 'Cesca' Camonte: The police are here for you! It's all my fault, I shouldn't have come...
- Tony Camonte: Your fault, my fault, who cares? So long as you're here.
- Tony Camonte: There's only one thing that gets orders and gives orders.
- [points to Tommy Gun]
- Tony Camonte: And this is it. That's how I got the south side for you, and that's how I'm gonna get the north side for you. It's a typewriter. I'm gonna write my name all over this town with it, in big letters!
- John 'Johnny' Lovo: Hey, stop him somebody!
- Tony Camonte: Get out of my way Johnny, I'm gonna spit!
- [starts firing]
- Poppy: Why don't you get yourself a girl, Tony?
- Tony Camonte: I'm workin' on that now.
- Poppy: Yeah? Well, don't tire yourself out.
- [Angelo is answering the phone for Tony]
- Tony Camonte: Hey, hey. Get a name. Get a name.
- Angelo: [speaking into telephone] What's your name? No, no, I no wanna know what's your brother's name, I wanna know what's your name.
- [angrily]
- Angelo: Oh, you do, huh? Listen, I come on over there, I smack you right in the teeth! I get you, you brother...
- Tony Camonte: Hey! What's the matter? That's no way to talk. Talk nice. Tell him to state his business.
- Angelo: Go state your business!
- [hangs up phone]
- Tony Camonte: I'm not hungry. Except for you. You got something I like.
- Poppy: Yeah. I'm nice with a lot of dressing. You work fast, don't you Tony.
- Angelo: [phones rings again; Angelo picks up the receiver] This is Mr. Camonte's sec...
- [person on the other end interrupts]
- Angelo: Oh, no. Please, you're wrong. I no hang up on you. I thought you was through.
- [person on the other end responds]
- Angelo: I told you before. You have to write a letter. You have to make...
- [person on the other end is implied to be ranting at Angelo]
- Angelo: Oh, you do, huh?
- [Angelo begins losing his temper]
- Angelo: Let me tell you...
- [person on the other line continues ranting]
- Angelo: [Angelo becomes infuriated; He drops the receiver and aims his gun at phone] Aw, shut up, you! You, fuck off - -...
- Tony Camonte: [Tony intervenes] Hey, what's the matter with you? You crazy?
- Tony Camonte: Hey, Cesca, you and me, huh? We'll show them. We'll lick them all, the North Side, the South Side! We'll lick the whole world!
- Poppy: [while sitting at a table, Tony rubs his foot on Poppy's leg] Please, Tony! My stockings!
- Tony Camonte: What's a matter?
- Poppy: Well don't do that, Tony. They're brand new.
- Tony Camonte: Hands off, eh?
- Poppy: No... feet.
