While some dreams come in with the tide and come true, some keep sailing until time runs out. This quote also expresses the idea of dreams vs reality. According to Janie, men have a ability in which they are able to dream, but once they come to a conclusion that their dream is unattainable or too far on the horizon they are able to move on and find a new, usually more realistic dream, on an even better horizon.  Women however are unable to do this as their lives are already planned out & so controlled by men that they simply have no need to dream.

For one, she believed love was something that came naturally, but here she is being forced to marry which is giving her a sense of unease. Secondly, because love is the perfect relationship between two individuals, Janie is confused because  she can't picture herself having any sort of relationship with a man like Logan.
