Profession:

The life story of Mario Gianluigi Puzo the ‘pheasant’ under the myth of Cinderella. Born into a poor Neapolitan immigrant family, Puzo graduated from NY's City College. After that, he joined the US Air Force and took part in World War II. Puzo's weakened vision prevented him from taking up arms and served as a PR officer in Germany for several years. In 1950, he wrote his first article, 'The Last Christmas'. The success of this piece led him to write 'The Dark Arena' (1955). Thus began his career as a writer. During the 1950's and 1960's, Puzo worked as an editor and editor for a publishing company, the ‘Magazine Management Company’ owned by Martin Goodman. While striving to bring the two sides together, he sought new and different writing - something that would appeal to the masses. He eventually settled on crime novels based on the fascinating, mysterious life of the Mafia. This is where he wrote 'The Godfather' (1969). It was later translated into a series of award-winning films by Francis Ford Coppola's Academy. Puzo, who was a screenwriter and then a journalist at the time, received the Academy Award for Best Performing Drama. Thank you for introducing a new type of crime novels in English Literature. His ‘Godfather’ is perhaps the most iconic figure in all of his works. A film was made that continued to be a cult film. The dialogues from the film are very popular and are often quoted.

Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment.

Revenge is a dish that tastes best when served cold.

Do you believe a man can truly love a woman and constantly betray her?Never mind physically but betray her in his mind,in the very "poetry of his soul".Well,it's not easy but men do it all the time.

I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.

A friend should always underestimate your virtues and an enemy overestimate your faults

The lawyer with the briefcase can steal more money than the man with the gun.

A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.

You cannot say 'no' to the people you love, not often. That's the secret. And then when you do, it has to sound like a 'yes'. Or you have to make them say 'no.' You have to take time and trouble.
