Duddy Kravitz and Purity of Motive
Duddy Kravitz was a youth of determination and vision, of passion and dedication. He sought out his dreams, and let very little remove him from his clear path to the land which he desired to possess so strongly. There was, however, a motive behind this appetite for Lac St. Pierre and its surrounding land, a motive to which an untainted air was not present.Stainless motive is unbeatable, when in its purest form, a form which is rarely spotted within the human heart.
