| Bert Cooper: | Young men love risk because they can’t imagine the consequences.
|
| Don Draper: | And you old men love building golden tombs and sealing the rest of us in with you. You’re done, you know that right?
|
| Bert: | So I should just throw away my fortune? I don’t have the rest of my life to earn it back.
|
| Don: | I understand. I’ll let you go back to sleep.
|
| Bert: | Why do you care?
|
| Don: | Because I’m sick of being batted around like a ping pong ball. Who the hell is in charge? A bunch of accountants trying to make a dollar into a dollar ten? I want to work. I want to build something of my own. How do you not understand that? You did it yourself 40 years ago!
|
| Bert: | That’s true. But I’m not sure you have a stomach for the realities.
|
| Don: | Try me. |
