While you two boys were content to sit back and become a couple of also-rans... I wanna take the future. I wanna win. And you don't get there by being some "aw shucks" guy sap. There's no place in business for people like that. Business is war. It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat. If my competitor were drowning, I'd walk over and put a hose right in his mouth. Can you say the same?

Mac McDonald

I can't. Nor would I want to.

Ray Kroc

Hence, your single location.

Mac McDonald

We want you out of this company, Ray.

Ray Kroc

Mac, how do you propose we do that?

Mac McDonald

We will sue you, whatever it takes.

Ray Kroc

And you'd probably win. But you can't afford to sue me. I'd bury you in court costs alone. Mac, I'm the president and C.E.O. of a major corporation with land holdings in 17 states... You run a burger stand in the desert. I'm national. You're **** local.
