Go To

I'm a Catholic, and I don't want to hurt anybody, understand?
Sonny Wortzik

Sonny: Is there any special country you want to go to?
Sal: [pause] Wyoming.
Sonny: ...No Wyoming. That's not a country.
Sonny Wortzik and Salvatore "Sal" Naturile

He wants to kill me so bad, he can taste it! Huh? Attica! Attica! Attica!! Attica!! Attica!! Attica!! Attica!! Attica!! Attica!! Attica! [the crowd cheers] Attica!! Attica!! Remember Attica?!.

[Sonny, dictating his will] Being of sound mind and body, and all that shit... [notary hostage nods] To my darling wife Leon whom I love as no other man has loved another man in all eternity, I leave $2,700 from my $10,000 life insurance policy, to be used for your sex change operation. If there is money left over it is to go to you on the first anniversary of my death, at my grave. I expect you to be a real woman then, and your life full of happiness and joy. To my sweet wife, Angie, five thousand from the same policy. You are the only woman I have ever loved, and I re-pledge my love to you in this sad moment, and to little Kimmy and Jimmy. I hope you remember me, Jimmy. You are the little man of the family now, and will have to look after them for me. To my mother I ask forgiveness. You don't understand the things I did and said, but I'm me, and I'm different. I leave you, the rest of the policy and my stamp collection. I want a military funeral and am entitled to one free of charge. Life and love are not easy and we have to bend a lot. I hope you find the places and the people to make you all happy as I could not. God bless you and watch over you, as I shall, until we are joined in the hereafter, sweet Leon, my Angie, dearest Kimmy and Jimmy, and my mother. Sonny... here I'll spell the last name...
Sonny Wortzik
