26. Chuck, You're out. We need a war consigliere.

From a 2016 article:

Michael has cooly assessed the forces arrayed against him and concluded accommodation, amelioration, reaching agreements with those whom the Corleones will naturally come into conflict is not realistic. In the more tranquil past, the aims and interests of the Corleone family could be negotiated, but those prudent compromises of the past will no longer serve.

"The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall our selves, and then we shall save our country. "

--Abraham Lincoln

There is a moment in "The Godfather" when Michael Corleone assigns various members of his organization specific tasks but he dismisses his loyal adviser, Tom Hagen.

Tom turns to him and asks what he has done wrong. "Michael, why am I out?"
"You have been a good consigliere, Tom," Michael says, "But you are not a war consigliere. Right now, I need a war consigliere."
