He hasn't yet come to grips with being so cool. He needs some time to accept it. Maybe it is because he is talking about the love that dare not speak its name - he thinks it whispers its name.
My grandfather used to do the same thing (whisper words like "divorced", "cheating" - stuff like that). I think he did it so the children couldn't hear what he was talking about. Of course, when he whispered it *to* the children, it kind of defeated the purpose. Also, when he went very deaf, he just yelled it out like he yelled everything out.
