   Nice line.
   The Godfather trilogy has some great lines.

   “I am going to make him an offer he cant refuse”
   is perhaps the most popular one, but one that needs
   to be viewed in the context of the movie.

   “Children and women can afford to be careless, but not men” is the one I like very much.
   The quote may sound like one coming from an MCP, but Vito Corleone makes the remark to caution his youngest son and than anything else.

   In the context of good-for-nothing out-of-work alcoholic husbands, where women slog hard to make ends meet, you can say that men and children can afford to be careless but not women !

   Here are a few more nice lines (again from Godfather II):

   I don’t feel I have to wipe everybody out. Just my enemies, that’s all. – a pensive Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) wearing a red shirt and a black sports jacket to Tom Hagen, the family’s consigliere.

   The Corleone Family was like the Roman Empire – a nostalgic Frank Pentangeli at the prison (??) shortly before he cuts his veins and bleeds to death in the bath tub.
   It was once, Tom Hagen responds.

   Just listen & watch this song from the movie Trishul.
   I love this song (Lyrics: Sahir, Music: Khayyam).

   I myself have seen the song on TV but not on these links
   since youtube is blocked here.

   Decent song.

   Another popular song from Trishul is Mohabbat Bade Kaam Ki

   BTW, we’ve seen Trishul (some decades back).

   Those were probably the twilight years of Waheed Rehman in a prominent role.
