Pg. 76 "She was a rut in the road. plenty of life beneath the surface but it was kept beaten down the wheels. Sometimes she stuck out into the future, imagining her life different from what it was."
Janie is saying she is someone who is caged inside a place when there is a big world she could be enjoying. Instead, she have to stay in the one place- Joe put her in the store. She will never be able to explain the adventurous world which she is living in.
Pg.79 "When you pull down yo' britches, you look lak de change uh life."
Janie states that when Joe pull down his pants you can tell he is an old men. She is saying there is a big age difference between her and Joe while he is busy getting on her being and older lady that is trying to be young. Janie is tired of Joe trying to criticize her looks because she is not in a good condition like Janie.
