others
for
what
they
are,
regardless
of
the
fortuitous
circumstances
of
birth
or
position.

two jobs to insure their family’s
survival. Yet others look toward a new American
Dream with less focus on financial gain
and more emphasis on living a simple and
fulfilling Wolfe sai

to work, to be himself, and to become
whatever thing his manhood and his
vision can combine to make him.
