Quote #4
"But you never had a hundred dollars. You never will." (62)
Like Harris, de Spain is compelled to rub in the difference between his economic class and Abner's. He also thinks Abner is incapable of rising. He probably can't imagine that Abner takes a certain amount of pride in his poverty, and that Abner is more interested in seeing rich people like de Spain fall than in seeing himself rise.
