The Godfather screenplay - a impressive line
Quote
VITO CORLEONE
I work my whole life, I don't apologize, to take care of my family.
And I refuse to be a fool dancing on the string, held by all those big shots.
I don't apologize that's my life but i thought that… that when it was your time that… that you would be the one to hold the strings.
Senetor Corleone. Governor Corleone, or something...
私は,人生をかけてファミリーの面倒をみてきた.
誰かに頭を下げたことはない.どんな大物にだって,踊らされることはなかった.
それが,わたしの人生だ.
しかし,お前の*1時代には,お前は,操る側になるものだと思っていた...
コルレオーネ上院議員,コルレオーネ知事,のような...
I found this screenplay on the internet. What a convenience.

*1:息子のマイケル・コルレオーネのことを指す
