ine vision of the male. (Garrison)."Happy and Biff are lost in the world of business. They want to start their own sporting goods company based on dreams and aspirations much like their fathers. Needless to say, they never get around to it. Not only failing in this success, but Willy himself was never successful.Willy Loman always said that the key to success was to be well liked, not just liked. Appearance and good character will get you everything you need in life. Willy Loman's next-door neighbor Charlie was a successful businessman. He owned his own company and offered Willy a job. Willy always thought he was farther ahead of Charlie because Charlie wasn't as well liked as him. What Willy Loman never seemed to understand is that appearance and character do not matter. The figures in the end and being content are the signs of success. Bernard was always a good student and has now become a successful lawyer. Willy hates to admit this because he always thought the Loman boys had character and looks, which would get them farther than Bernard. They were well liked, whereas Bernard was just liked. Bernard realized that school is what is needed; he seemed to care more about Biff's education than Biff himself. Bernard along with his father Charlie realized the true keys to success.The American Dream is often based on opinion. Willy Loman's dream was to be known, to be prosperous, and to have a status. Willy Loman wanted to see Biff and Happy succeed; they had the so-called keys, good character and good looks. He wanted to die the death of a salesman of his era; instead he died the death of a salesman of this era. www.playwrites.com/salesman3.htmlArthur Miller's Death of A Salesman. Craig M. Garrison.
