"You know it don't take much intelligence to get yourself into a nailed-up coffin, Laura. But who in hell ever got himself out of one without removing one nail"
I liked this quote. I think it relates to life well. To be analytical, I believe it represents Tom well. It is a symbol for Tom's life. He is stuck working a mediocre job, going through the same routines, to reach the same end, paying the bills. Tom feels confined. He lusts for adventure and something exciting and refreshing. Instead, he is trapped by his current, dull life of work and sleep. I can relate to this sentiment. Sometimes I feel so down because I feel like my life is on repeat. I go through the same mundane routines over and over, and for what? I feel a desire for something more exciting or purposeful. It seems like I don't have a meaningful destination. It seems like i follow the same beaten path of a mediocre life.
