Charles Scorsese:
My mother, I remember my mother scrubbin' them floors, wooden floors, on her knees. No carpets. Wooden floors. With a brush, an iron brush. In the hallway and in the house. She used to make those floors sparkle. Wooden floors. Today they got it so soft. They got a washing machine, they got this, they got that. And they was - they never, they never cried, you know, that they'd say they were tired. There was no such thing as being tired
