Quote #10
"Oh honey, I love you more than anything in the world! I've kind of been worried by business and everything, but that's all over now, and I'm back again." (31.1.34)
When Myra gets sick and is rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery, Babbitt vows to stop rebelling and to become an upstanding, conservative citizen again. Maybe it's the fear of losing his wife, or maybe it's the shame of having cheated on her: it's your call. But it's clear that Myra's sickness is what provokes Babbitt to change suddenly back to his old ways.
