When I was a boy, I used to help my sister wash the sheets in the morning. She said I had strong hands. It was so hot. You sweat so much in the night, you had to wash the damn sheets every morning by hand.” He must have had strong hands because after washing the sheets, he went to work in the sugar cane fields picking the cane by hand. #hands #sugarcane #thegreatdepression
