Chapter 4

“ Ah’m just as striff as you is stout” (Chapter 4, pg. 26)

In other words this quote means that he is slow as he is fast. I identified this as the main thing that Joe is trying to say. These words are words you might not hear or see all the time but by me being the student that I am identified this as the meaning of this quote

“Janie pulled back a long time because he did not represent sun-up and pollen and blooming trees, but he spoke for far horizon. He spoke for change and chance”. (Chapter 4, pg. 28)

This quote means that, Janie feel like “Joe Starks” did not care about the things and ideas that she had, and that she felt would make a difference in their town all he cared about was his feelings and thoughts and didn’t even acknowledge hers.
