He played to win, and at all costs.
He did not care whose what it took to get there.
He just wanted to be in the winner's circle.
For years, his own arrogance denied him the very things he sought.
More than anything else, I supposed he learned in life money can't buy you everything you wanted. Power did not guarantee you victory. Somewhere along the journey to a destination I think he learned the destination is in the journey.
