BEN: There’s a new continent at your doorstep, William. You could walk out rich. Rich! (He is gone.)
WILLY: We’ll do it here, Ben! You hear me? We’re gonna do it here!
– Arthur Miller
Death of a Salesman, Act 2. In this hallucination of Ben, Willy rejects his brother’s offer to become rich by quitting New York city and heading west to Alaska. A proud Willy persists with the delusion that his American Dream of material prosperity can still be his by remaining in New York.
