“I’m going to tell you the story of a boy. His name was Leolucas. He was born more than a 
thousand years ago, in Sicily. When he was only twelve, he saw his parents brutally murdered by 
soldiers. After that, he was alone; and even though he was just a boy, he ran his Family’s estate and 
worked the land, like a man. Then one day, he heard the summons to his true destiny. He gave all his 
money, and his land, to the poor—he became a monk. He performed many selfl ess acts and was loved 
by everybody who knew him. He died peacefully at the age of a hundred.
    “Even after his death, he performed many miracles, affi rmed by the 
Holy Father in Rome. Leolucas is now the Patron Saint of Corleone.
    “A thousand years later, on the very land that Leolucas once 
worked, another boy was born. He had a happy childhood, until, 
when he was twelve, some men came to kill his father. Three 
shots from a lupara. His mother was stabbed. Gutted like an 
animal. The boy escaped. That was me. I was that boy. I came 
to America, I took the name of my hometown. I worked hard, 
helped my friends, and built up a good business. And I avenged 
the wrongs that had been done to my Family. This is our 
tradition. These men of honor, too, are my Family. La 
Famiglia Corleone. If you want to be with us, we now 
invite you to be, reborn, as one of us.
    “The instruments by which you live and die are the 
gun and the knife.
    “Back and forth. If you ever betray your 
friends, you will burn, just as the picture of 
our beloved patron saint now burns your 
bloodied palm. Do you agree to this?
    “You are now one of our qualifi ed 
men. Gli uomini qualifi cat. 
Please, introduce yourself to 
your brothers.”
—Don Vito  Corleone, 
Summer 1950
