Who made Tony Soprano

Dickie Moltisanti

  • [to Tony] Look, you want to be a civilian, I appreciate that. I'm all for it. But pay attention to me for once, okay? You take the speakers, right? At the same time, you promise yourself these speakers are it. Now, you say to yourself, "This is the last time I'm ever gonna steal something." And you stick to it. It's that simple.
  • The thing about remodeling is, you start with the sinks and then you go, "We might as well do this other thing while we're at it." It spins out of control.

Christopher Moltisanti

  • [narrating the first lines of the movie] I told them when I got here, “Okay, I explored the criminal lifestyle.” But I was an altar boy, for Christ’s sake. Moltisanti is a religious name. And still I’m fucked. I met death on Route 23, not too far from here. But that was much later. Back in 1967, the man wearing the hat was my father. In those days, he didn’t have a son.
  • [narrating the final lines of the movie] That's the guy, my uncle Tony. The guy I went to hell for.
