I've been accused of every death except the casualty list of the World War.

I am going to St. Petersburg, Florida, tomorrow. Let the worthy citizens of Chicago get their liquor the best they can. I'm sick of the job-it's a thankless one and full of grief. I've been spending the best years of my life as a public benefactor.

Vote early and vote often.

I have built my organization upon fear.

A smile can get you far, but a smile with a gun can get you further.

I got nothing against the honest cop on the beat. You just have them transferred someplace where they can't do you any harm. But don't ever talk to me about the honor of police captains or judges. If they couldn't be bought they wouldn't have the job.

My rackets are run on strictly American lines and they're going to stay that way.
