[shouts] You get a good look around this country! People are starving, mister big shot! Our neighbours! And they can't feed the seven kids they've got! Never mind a new one on the way! You know most people in this world today! They'll make $75 a week like you, mister big shot! Most people don't make $75 a month and if they did, they wouldn't quit!
[Marty walks in]
Hi, pop.
I don't get it.
Pop, I've learned a lot while I was on the road, but I'm a soloist.
You couldn't be a soloist in a relief line. You're nothing but a quitter.
Pop, I'm better than those bums. You don't know, you weren't there.
Do you know what happens when cocky kids are in the ring? They go down. Down! Every time, down.
[walks away]
Ma, I met a guy. Hank Sanicola, he's gonna manage me.
You're gonna kill us both if you don't straighten out.
Ma, pop's wrong! I'm not going down! I'm going up!
