Quote #10
He talked to her, his voice a little insane, trying to make her understand that he had loved her, and had left her here only for her safety—(35.5.9)
Martin is beside himself when he finds his wife Leora lying dead in her bedroom. He has been away trying to cure people of plague. But while he's been away, Leora has been dying and wondering whether he'll come back to save her. It's fair to say that Martin is done with love once Leora is gone. The only thing left for him is science, even though he does get married again.
