And if I told you that just getting out on this barge and being on the sea had changed me and made me feel different about things as if all that I've been through wasn't me, didn't count, it was just like it never happened, you'd laugh, wouldn't you?

Quote context
[...]
- I suppose you remember your promise.
- No other reason was to count with you as long as I wasn't married already.
- You want me to get dressed and go ashore, don't you? Oh, yes, you do.
- I suppose if I tried to tell you that I wasn't that no more... you'd believe me, wouldn't you?
- And I sized you up as different from the ones on land, as water is from mud.
- I couldn't marry you with you believing a lie. And I was ashamed to tell you the truth.
- And now, give me a bawling-out and beat it... like I can tell you're going to.
- Will you believe it... if I tell you that loving you has made me clean?
