Век живи, век учись, -- дураком помрешь.

"Американская мечта" это, оказывается вот что:

The American Dream is that dream of a land in which
life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone,
with opportunity for each according to ability or
achievement.
<...> a dream of social order in which each man and each
woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature
of which they are innately capable, and be recognized
by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous
circumstances of birth or position <...>

In the American Dream, the goals of all people (citizens
and residents) to secure a livelihood, gain an education,
build friendships and family, and live free of oppression
and in peace, are regarded as fundamental to the philosophy,
principles, and purpose for which the United States exists.


Нечто среднее между коммунизмом и Телемой.
Надо такие вещи освежать периодически в памяти, для
сохранения твердости руки и верности глаза. Ну, еще
Вторую Поправку.
