" We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us. We don't have to sit in no bar room blowin' in our jack jus' because we got no place else to go."
" Tell me about it, George."
" I seen hunderds of men come by an' go on the road an' work the ranches, an' every one of 'em's got a little piece of land in his head, an' an' never a God damn one of 'em ever gets it."
" Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world."
“ Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world.”
“ I seen hunderds of men come by an' go on the road an' ranches, with their bindles on their back an' that same damn thing in their heads.”
“ We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us.”
“ Tell me about it, George.”
