- We were very poor after my husband died. In fact, we had nothing.

- Jack had to do chores before school and after school, and then, after chores, he studied in the evening, so he could go to college.

- Then he had to work his way through college and through law school.

- Oh, I don't mean there's anything unusual about it. But I'm only trying to tell you that he worked very hard to get where he is. Very, very hard.

- And, well, he's my son, and I wouldn't want anything or anyone to spoil it for him now.

- I see. But I don't see why anything should spoil it for him, do you?
