entry 14

"It was always said that Ndulue and Ozoemena had one mind," said Obiekra. "I remember when i was a young boy there was a song about them. He could not do anything without telling her." "I did not know that," said Okonwo."I thought he had been a strong man in his youth." "He was indeed," said Ofoedu. Okonkwo shook his head doubtfully. p.g. 68

In a way Okonkwo is kind of pathetic. He thinks all signs of affection or love are weak, which in the end he will be empty because he clearly does not know how to love. It is frustrating how he dismissed a man that he had once had respect for as weak just because he talked to his wife about things. Okonkwo is very narrow minded he does not except anything to be true if it is not something he already believes.
