“Gentlemen, there has been much
debate about the possibility of the American dream”
“The American dream for you?”
“Roland, the American dream means to me that any kid, born here …”
“...who is rich or white, who
studies in an Ivy League college or in a low-rated college, who lives in a
villa or in a pied-à-terre...”
“…the American dream is that that
boy can grow up and enjoy legal quibbles, undeserved annuities, holdings in the
Cayman Islands and an account in a Swiss bank. This is the American dream!”
