[00:00.14]I got little in this world.
[00:01.55]I give honesty without regret.
[00:03.10]One hundred dollars for that picture.
[00:07.50]I remember taking a picture with…
[00:09.35]Ooh!
[00:11.74]Let me show you.
[00:14.82]Let me show you our picture.
[00:19.43]This was me and my husband when we were first married.
[00:23.87]I always slept on one side, left room for my husband.
[00:25.96]And that’s me when we were sixteen.
[00:28.66]But this, this, this, this is not the case.
[00:29.71]I still do it.
[00:30.36]I still lay on the half of the bed. (pause) We used to sneak in…
[00:37.70]Still haven’t seen the doctor I was seein’; there’s been blood for the last, eh, forty-eight hours, and I can’t get up the mucus for the last, eh, two, three months…
[00:47.70]Oh yes, and I maintain, I maintain strongly, to this minute, I don’t think it’s an ordinary cold.
[00:55.26]God forgive me, but an old person without money is pathetic.
[01:01.49]Children, and mothers, that’s the way we have it.
[01:06.67]A mother– they are .
[01:09.33]Cause mothers do too much.
[01:11.62]That is mother’s life, to live for your child. (pause) Yes, my dear.
[01:19.97]I couldn’t get younger.
[01:22.36]I have to be an old man.
[01:25.04]That’s all.
[01:27.27]Well…
[01:28.22]Are you happy here, honey?
[01:30.76]Are you happy living with us?
[01:32.08]So anytime I walk with Lou and…
[01:34.87]That’s all.
[01:38.05]Mr.
[01:38.33]Singer?
[01:38.65]Are you happy living with us here?
[01:40.00]But we don’t do that, dear.
[01:41.89]But are you happy?
[01:44.15]If you mean, if, if you could say, yes, and I thought, and I was so happy, and everybody, ”
[01:52.19]What is this?
[01:53.23]What is it?”
[01:54.18]It just is, beautiful.
[01:58.21]Like, just a room.
[01:59.97]Your own room, in your own home.
