Matt Keenan : I'm not trying to flatter you. I may even insult you a little. You're shanty-Irish, born in the slum, raised on charity, educated on the GI Bill. In other words you're exactly the balance Lee needs. You know, out here it's pretty hard to live down Groton and Harvard, even if you try - and Lee doesn't. Besides, you've both got youth, the thing they make a fetish out of here in America. Of course, I prefer the European attitude, where even the women place a premium on age. But then, this isn't Europe.
