Do you understand boss...

I only seen this movie once and it was right around the time it came out on video. This little monologue made me sad because I could relate to the character and wondered how many people felt the same. I think about this bit of drama at least once a week and I am sad all over again. Anyone else feel the same?


" I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world ever' day. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand? "
