Which sentences in this excerpt from leo tolstoy's the death of ivan ilyich show that ivan ilyich has realized the hypocrisy of his earlier life?

"yes, you sick people are always like there, now i think i am warm enough. even praskovya fedorovna, who is so particular, could find no fault with my temperature. well, now i can say good-morning," and the doctor presses his patient's hand.

then dropping his former playfulness, he begins with a most serious face to examine the patient, feeling his pulse and taking his temperature, and then begins the sounding and auscultation.

ivan ilyich knows quite well and definitely that all this is nonsense and pure deception, but when the doctor, getting down on his knee, leans over him, putting his ear first higher then lower, and performs various gymnastic movements over him with a significant expression on his face, ivan ilyich submits to it all as he used to submit to the speeches of the lawyers, though he knew very well that they were all lying and why they were lying.

the doctor, kneeling on the sofa, is still sounding him when praskovya fedorovna's silk dress rustles at the door and she is heard scolding peter for not having let her know of the doctor's arrival.

she comes in, kisses her husband, and at once proceeds to prove that she has been up a long time already, and only owing to a misunderstanding failed to be there when the doctor arrived.

ivan ilyich looks at her, scans her all over, sets against her the whiteness and plumpness and cleanness of her hands and neck, the gloss of her hair, and the sparkle of her vivacious eyes. he hates her with his whole soul. and the thrill of hatred he feels for her makes him suffer from her touch.
