- Michael Corleone: I feel... I'm getting wiser now.
- Kay Corleone: The sicker you get, the wiser you get, huh?
- Michael Corleone: When I'm dead, I'm gonna be really smart.
- Michael Corleone: What's wrong with being a lawyer?
- Kay Corleone: Nothing, except he doesn't want it. He loves music he wants his life to be in music.
- Michael Corleone: Well, music is great. I love music but he should finish what he started. Anthony.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: I'm going my own way.
- Michael Corleone: Your own way.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: Uh-huh.
- Michael Corleone: Professional singer.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: That's right.
- Michael Corleone: And what happens if you fail.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: I won't fail.
- Michael Corleone: Men always believe that. With a law degree you're taking on insurance. After that you can do anything you want. You can work for me.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: I will never work for you. I have bad memories.
- Michael Corleone: All families have bad memories.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: I will always be your son, but I will never have anything to do with your business.
- Michael Corleone: Anthony, finish the law degree.
- Anthony Vito Corleone: No.
- Kay Corleone: That he got from you. That "no."
- Michael Corleone: You could have helped me, Kay. You could have helped me to convince him.
- Kay Corleone: Convince him of what?
- Michael Corleone: He throws his life away. He throws greatness away!
- Kay Corleone: This is greatness? You know, Michael, now that you're so respectable I think you're more dangerous than you ever were. In fact, I preferred you when you were just a common Mafia hood.
- Michael Corleone: Alright, can we talk now? Common sense?
- Kay Corleone: Alright. Tony knows you killed Fredo.
- Michael Corleone: Why did you come here?
- Kay Corleone: I came here to protect my son. I didn't come here to see you disguised by your church. I thought that was a shameful ceremony.
- Michael Corleone: I spent my life protecting my son. I spent my life protecting my family!
- Kay Corleone: Let's be reasonable here, Michael. I mean, that's your big thing, isn't it? Reason backed up by murder.
- Michael Corleone: Oh, God, you hate me. You hate me.
- Kay Corleone: No, I don't hate you, Michael. I dread you.
- Michael Corleone: I did what I could, Kay, to protect all of you from the horrors of this world.
- Kay Corleone: But you became my horror. The children still love you, though. Especially Mary.
- Michael Corleone: Well, that's something. We can build on that. For their sake. Let's try.
- Kay Corleone: Only if you let Tony go to live his own life. Away from you.
- Michael Corleone: I'll let Tony go.
- Kay Corleone: Thank you.
- Kay Corleone: You know, Michael; now that you're so respectable, I think you're more dangerous than ever. I liked you better when you were just a common Mafia hood.
- Michael Corleone: Do you still fear me Kay?
- Kay Corleone: I don't fear you Michael, I just dread you.
