Summary

This quote suggests that a secret shared by two people is something sacred and known only to those involved, possibly representing a close bond or intimate trust. However, when a secret is shared by three individuals, it becomes something that is likely to be spread among others, losing its exclusivity. The quote alludes to the idea that confidentiality and privacy can easily be compromised when more people are involved in keeping and sharing a secret.

There is no solid satisfaction in any career for a woman like myself. There is no home, no true freedom, no hope, no joy, no expectation for tomorrow, no contentment. I would rather cook a meal for a man and bring him his slippers and feel myself in the protection of his arms than have all the citations and awards and honors I have received worldwide, including the Ribbon of Legion of Honor and my property and my bank accounts. They mean nothing to me. And I am only one among the millions of sad women like myself.
