As a rule, I had murder in my mind. That day, I had it in my heart.

About This Quote

In the book The Godfather, the character of Michael Corleone says, “As a rule, I had murder in my mind. That day, I had it in my heart.” This quote is a great way to describe the difference between being a cold-blooded killer and having mercy in your heart. It also shows us that one way to tell when someone is capable of murder is to ask if they have murderous thoughts. If they say yes, then they are probably capable of murder.
