Although the rest of the question is not included, we can still describe what this quote means in the novel. This quote comes from the book <em>The Pearl</em> by John Steinbeck.
In this quote, Kino is describing his wife Juana. Kino has always been obsessed with manhood, and what it means to be a man. Similarly, he wants his wife to be a typical woman. Juana is indeed patient, fragile and submissive. She obeys her husband and fulfills ideals of traditional womanhood. However, she is also very strong. She is resilient, practical and brave. This semi-contradiction shocks Kino, but also allows him to rely on her for support throughout their troubles.
As Mama’s only son, Ruth’s defiant husband, Travis’s caring father, and Beneatha’s belligerent brother, Walter serves as both protagonist and antagonist of the play. The plot revolves around him and the actions that he takes, and his character evolves the most during the course of the play. Most of his actions and mistakes hurt the family greatly, but his belated rise to manhood makes him a sort of hero in the last scene.
Throughout the play, Walter provides an everyman perspective of the mid-twentieth-century Black male. He is the typical man of the family who struggles to support it and who tries to discover new, better schemes to secure its economic prosperity. Difficulties and barriers that obstruct his and his family’s progress to attain that prosperity constantly frustrate Walter. He believes that money will solve all of their problems, but he is rarely successful with money.
