The Wife doesn’t want to “catch” him, she wants to be told. The truth won’t count if she has to wrestle it away from him; it will only count if he hands it to her. She wants to reach her hand out, palm open, and take it—even though she

“She firmly believe that the means should justify the end. At the end of the day, she would remain in silence to invoke a special prayer.”

“I realized in the silence that followed that I hadn't spoken a single word -- and even though I laughed with them, it felt like I was watching a movie about my life instead of living it. And then they went back to talking, everyone telling stories, laughing, I tried to smile and shake my head at the right times, but I was always a moment behind the rest of them. They laughed because something was funny. I laughed because they had.”

“She felt vulnerable and alone. Once again, she felt that life was not treating her as it treated other people - it gave her every chance to achieve something, and just when she was close to her objective, the ground opened up and swallowed her.
That's how it had been with her studies, with parents, with certain dreams she had never shared with anyone. She felt all possible paths had exhausted, without even taking a single step, But that was how she was, and she felt herself growing gradually weaker and less and less able to change.
She stand in a world in which living is more important than understanding.”

“The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them -- words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for a want of a new understanding ear.”
