John Kelso : So, tell me, Jim, has your family always collected?
Jim Williams : Well, that's a very genteel way of asking if I come from old money.
John Kelso : Do you?
Jim Williams : No. I was born in Gordon Georgia, a little town outside of Macon. My father was a barber, sometime house builder, my mother was a secretary. What money I have is about eleven years old. So, yes I am "nouveau riche," but then it's the "riche" that counts, now isn't it? There's only two things that interest me, work, and those trappings of aristocracy that I find worthwhile, the very things they're forced to sell when the money runs out, and it always runs out. And then all they're left with is their lovely manners!
