“It was you who awoke me last summer out of a life-long, stupid dream.” Page 117
Robert was one of the motivations for Edna’s “awakening”, and it is proven by this quote. She tells Robert that she loves him and then proceeds to tell him this. The “life-long, stupid dream”, which Edna refers to it as, is in fact her life before the awakening. Her attractions to him made it possible for her to finally wake up and realize the life she was living wasn’t pleasing her. The novels moral is to find yourself, and then embrace your life and live it to the fullest, to meet your needs. By falling in love with Robert, Edna did this.
