Como traduciriais esta expresión: "there is only so much a body can believe"
Contexto: He treated most every body good, good as he could, real good when he was able. And he didn't need to neither. He was a full fledged rotating shift worker. Damn! Imagine that! Being needed and able to work any shift, any shift at all! And working 'em all. To talk to whoever you want, get married even. What ever that was. Why I even heard tell he was able to have kids. Always wondered if that was true, there is only so much a body can believe. Any shift, any shift at all! Can you imagine that? Being so important, knowing so much that you are in demand on any and every shift! Only the best can claim that. And not many of them.
