John Gotti

• Jojo walks into the bar. He's wearin' a solid gold belt buckle this big: says Jojo on it, he's got a braclet on his arm: says Jojo on it, he's got a fuckin' necklace: says Jojo on it, he's got solid gold cuff links: they all say Jojo on 'em. So this little chink waiter walks over and says, "Excuse me mister Jojo." He said, "Shut the fuck up, I don't want anyone to know I'm here."

Other

• Carlo Gambino: These FEDs, they tolerate certain things. CERTAIN THINGS. Not Drugs.

Dialogue

F.B.I Agent: Mr. Gotti, I am with the F.B.I

John Gotti: You know what F.B.I stands for don't you?

F.B.I Agent: Why don't you tell me.

John Gotti: Forever bother the Italians.

John Gotti: Makes you think. Makes you think about the people in your life. And I think of Neil; and If he would sit here right now what would he say to me? He`d say "John! what's it about? What's life about... if you don't go through it as a man's man?". He'd say "Suck it up, take the fall do the time. That makes you who you are. That makes you what you are. How long have we been around this thing of ours? This Cosa Nostra? 120 years. Whats it about? Its about the rules, perimeters. You take the beating for a friend, you don't run, you don't lay down, you don't betray who you are... what you are.

Frank Locascio: Self Esteem...

John Gotti: Self Esteem is basic. You pick it up on the street. You gotta remember Angie. I loved this guy, I loved him but he was stupid. He never rolled, ya know that? HE NEVER ROLLED! My brother Gene, Joey DiMig, they're doing a thousand years now. Why? Thats the rule. You don't break that, you don't rat. Gives you a bit of power huh? Not the kind of power these FEDs have. God forbid, we pull their chain in public. Fuckin dress better than them they take it personal likes its a fuckin vendetta. There supposed to act better than the rest of us. They just wanted me to be something I wasn't even born to be.

Frank Locascio: Humble, they wanted you to be humble.

John Gotti: Yeah so you humble me. What you got now? You got a war. You got a global war. You got the Chinks, you got the Dominicans, the Asians, the Russians, the Columbians, Jamaicans. What they doin? They desecrate the nation. You got your variable fuckin' snowstorms of cocaine, smack -- whatever the hell else they shove in their veins. You got a worldwide crime syndicate now. There's no rules. There's no parameters. There's no feelings. There's no feelings for this country.

Frank Locascio: Anarchy.

John Gotti: You got anarchy. So... 5-10 years from now, they're gonna wish there was an American Cosa Nostra. 5-10 years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.
