He was disgusted by couples that made out in the hallways between classes, and got annoyed at even the slightest sappy moments in movies.

"He had never thought the question over clearly, but vaguely imagined that his wife had long suspected him of being unfaithful to her and was looking the other way. It even seemed to him that she, a worn-out, aged, no longer beautiful woman, not remarkable for anything, simple, merely a kind mother of a family, ought in all fairness to be indulgent. It turned out to be quite the opposite."

"He thought of her often, and he missed the companionship they'd once shared and the friendship that had been the bedrock of their marriage at its best."
