"I think sadly that Morse thinks that he can exist on his own and he only realises at the end that he can't and never really has been able to. I feel sorry for him"

In this quote, John Thaw is expressing his thoughts on the character of Morse. He believes that Morse has an incorrect sense of self-reliance and thinks that he can make it through on his own. However, as the story progresses, Morse pertains to the awareness that he can not exist in seclusion and has actually always needed the assistance and companionship of others. Thaw feels pity for Morse, as he sees him as a lonely and isolated figure who has actually never truly had the ability to find real happiness and satisfaction in his singular existence. This quote highlights the style of human connection and the importance of relationships in our lives.
