在谈理想的时候:
V’s mother: ‘You must do what you love, Gianni, what you feel inside here. But it takes hard work and practice.’(V对服装设计感兴趣,母亲鼓励他。)
A’s father: ‘(If) Someone offers you a million dollars to write a book, sure. Why not. Otherwise, no.’(A对写小说感兴趣,父亲却教他“向钱看”。)
在谈成功的时候:
V’s mother: Success only comes with hard work... It is never easy. That’s why it’s special.
A’s father: When you feel special, success will follow.
所以难怪Andrew心里会不平衡:
‘This world has wasted me. While it has turned you, Mr. Versace, into a star.
You think you are better than me. Is that it? You are not better than me. We are the same. The only difference is (that) you got lucky.’
