Willy’s pride is another cause of his unethical decisions which add fuel to his downfall. It is ironic how Willy is supercilious, yet he borrows money from his neighbor and acts as if it is a part of his salary; which is completely wrong. If he is prideful to start off with, he should not be asking others for money because he lessening and is setting up a dejected persona in front of others. At this stage in his life, Willy is barely successful even though he keeps telling himself that he is. His salary “has been cut to commission only, and when he is fired, his quest to gain the American dream is over. His only charm of hope relies on his sons” (The American dream in Death of a Salesman). Willy’s delusional thoughts affect his personal reality which leads “him to believe that because he is ‘well liked’ he was successful in all of his endeavors, which is far from the truth” (The American dream in Death of a Salesman). For Willy, being “liked” and “well-liked” play a role in the way his morals shaped
