У барда я спрашивал
2023-04-03 13:27Q. Who said you can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word?
A. The quote "You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word" is often attributed to Al Capone, but there is no definitive proof that he said it. The quote first appeared in print in 1930, in a book by journalist and crime writer Fred Pasley called "Al Capone: The Biography of a Self-Made Man." Pasley did not attribute the quote to anyone, and it is possible that he made it up.
