Michael Corleone: I love you, Kay. You know, every night here in Sicily, I dream of my wife and my children, and how I lost them.

Lion:  Hey Max, you heard the story of the scarecrow?

Max: No.

Lion: You think crows are scared of a scarecrow?

Max: Yeah, I think they’re scared. Yeah why?

Lion: No, crows are not scared, believe me.

Max: The god damn crows are scared.

Lion: No, crows are laughin’.

Max: Nah, that’s bullshit…

Lion: That’s right, the crows are laughin’. Look, the farmer puts out a scarecrow, right, with a funny hat on it, got a funny face. The crows fly by, they see that, it strikes ‘em funny, makes ‘em laugh.

Max: The god damn crows are laughin’?

Lion: That’s right, they’re laughin’ their asses off. And then they say, “Well, that ol’ farmer Jo down there, he’s a pretty good guy. He made us laugh, so we won’t bother him any more”.
