Once Upon a Time in America Quote
[ Noodles gives Moe a letter to read ]
Fat Moe : Who's Robert Williams?
Noodles : I am.
Fat Moe : [ reading ] "We wish to inform you that following the sale of the Beth Israel Cemetery..." The synagogue sent these out if you wanted to relocate your loved ones. I got the same letter on account of my father.
Noodles : Only the synagogue didn't send that. I got that last week, and the rabbi told me he sent those out about eight months ago.
Fat Moe : Yeah, that's right. That's about when I got mine. So... what else did the rabbi say?
Noodles : He said I was lucky. The bodies of... Philip Stein, Maximilian Bercovicz, Patrick Goldberg... were already spoken for. And they were up in a very fancy cemetery in Riverdale.
Fat Moe : What's this all mean?
Noodles : It means, "Noodles, though you've been hiding in the asshole of the world, we found you. We know where you are." It means, "Get ready."
Fat Moe : For what?
Noodles : That's the one thing it didn't say.
