2. Chapter 11 The exchange between Mr. and Mrs. Pontellier
“She heard him moving about the room; every sound indicating impatience and irritation. Another time she would have gone in at his request. She would, through habit, have yielded to his desire; not with any sense of submission or obedience to his compelling wishes, but unthinkingly, as we walk move, sit, stand, go through the daily treadmill of the life which has been portioned to us” (Chopin 31).
“Edna began to feel like one who awakened gradually out of a dream, a delicious, grotesque, impossible dream, to feel again the realities pressing into her soul” (Chopin 32).

3. Chapter 12
“… That were troubled and feverish hours, disturbed with dreams that were intangible, that eluded her, leaving only an impression upon her half-awakened senses of something unattainable” (Chopin 32).
