I said that I would see you because, I heard that you're a serious man, to be treated with respect.

But uh, I must say "no" to you -- and I'll give you my reasons. It's true, I have a lot of friends in politics, but they wouldn't be friendly very long if they knew my business was gambling instead of drugs, which they rule that as a -- harmless vice. But gambling is a dirty business.

It -- makes -- it doesn't make any difference to me what a man does for a living, understand.

But your business is ah -- a little dangerous.

I have a sentimental weakness for my children, and I spoil them as you can see; they talk when they should listen. But, anyway, Signor Herbstl, my no is final, and I wish to congratulate you on your new business, and I know you'll do very well; and good luck to you -- as best as your interests don't conflict with my interests. Thank you.
