You can't really divorce yourself and your life from the world you live in.

There's no sense in doing something, especially if it's a hard job, if you can't have a little fun.

To strive for something better - at least there's a chance.

Yes, I would agree that America, just like Spain was in the 17th Century, is the main empire of the world and they are the ones who, on the surface, are the most pushy: pushing their language, pushing their culture - or what there is of it - pushing by force their system on others.

Walking down the street in any town or city in the world and having people look at you and start talking to you, convinced that they know you as well or better than they do members of their own family, that's just an odd phenomenon.
