We are all losers, but the true losers are down there on Wall Street. (...)There is a danger. Don’t fall in love with yourselves. We have a nice time here. But remember, carnivals come cheap. What matters is the day after, when we will have... to return to normal lives. Will there be any changes then? I don’t want you to remember these days, you know, like “Oh, we were young and it was beautiful.” Remember that our basic message is “We are allowed to think about alternatives.”
So all we need is patience. The only thing I’m afraid of is that we will someday just go home and then we will meet once a year, drinking beer, and nostalgically remembering “What a nice time we had here.” Promise yourselves that this will not be the case. We know that people often desire something but do not really want it. Don’t be afraid to really want what you desire.
