Summary
Stephen noted this pattern often in surly patients cured of a lingering pain: a miraculous improvement in temperament, earthly angels the morning after they damned him to hell. This did not bother him, of course. He was soothed at the reminder that man was a creature of circumstance, and that improvement of the spirit was tied to the improvement of the material conditions. In nature, in man, in society: where pain fermented, evils brewed.
What bothered him was the disproportionate gratitude towards him, personally. And it bothered him, too, that he could not wish this sailor a proper goodnight, because he did not remember the sailor's name.Stephen and Jack talk on a cold night during their first cruise on the Sophie.

Summary
As Jo approached the door to her new home, she would not admit to feeling anything more than a little weary as she leaned on Friedrich’s arm. She knew that it was perfectly natural for most women to feel some anxiety on the occasion of their wedding, but her own fear of marriage had all been about losing the safety and love of her family in pursuit of another, newer type of love. It had never been about whatever happened after the wedding.
Or, Friedrich and Jo share a quiet moment after all the excitement of their wedding.
