" Tell her everything you're scared about. Everybody's scared, Arnold. Everybody's got things in them they're ashamed of. That's what a wife's for. To make you feel you don't have to be ashamed of yourself. Then she tells you what makes her feel miserable.... Then, that's your job. It's your job to make her feel she's not as bad as everybody makes her think she is. "
