Ed Scofield : [about Theo's marriage] Are you... are you sure that's all over?
Theo West : [hugs him] Oh, Father, I don't know. I... I broke up our marriage because I was never sure I belonged to Tom. You see, I've never been certain of anything- and, what's even more horrible, I probably never will be.
Ed Scofield : Yes, you will be. Somewhere, somehow, five years or five minutes from now, some man will come through that door or another door, and the minute you look at him, you'll be sure.
Theo West : And if I'm not?
Ed Scofield : Then you must never marry again... and that won't be your fault-but mine-mine and your mother's, because we tore the certainty out of you.
