Chapter 16 Quotes

"Naw, mah husband didn't had nothin' but hisself.He's easy tuh love if you mess round 'im. Ah
loves 'im."


Everyone seems to think that Tea Cake is such a bad man and Janie steadies takes up for him. Janie knows her husband well and says that he is easy to love. I think the reason she says this is because he doesn't give her any demands or complains about anything. I also think she says it's easy for her to love Tea Cake because Tea Cake is what Janie been looking for all her life, so she easily in love.

"Shucks! If dat's her notion she's barkin' up de wrong tree. Mah hands id full already."

Janie friend thinks that she is after nothing but land and money. Everyone believes that there is no way Janie relationship is love, they believe that either Janie is out after Tea Cake or Tea Cake is out after Janie. I even noticed that she recommended a certain man to go after for land which brought to my attention that if she trying to tell Janie to go after him just for land then she must look for men with lots of land, not for love.
