__Before Reading Chapter One__
I believe that the quote, "Ships at a distance have every man's wish on board" is meaning something about immigration. Ships at a distance could mean seeing ships from land. The ships having every mans wish on board could mean that every man on board is hoping to start a new beginning when they get off the boat. I think immigration is going to have some kind of relevance to this book __Their Eyes Were Watching God__.

__After Reading Chapter One__
After reading the first chapter, my prediction was wrong. I now think the quote means that the lady, Janie Starks, is the ship in the distance that all the women sitting on their porches are looking at. This lady Janie carries every mans wish because she is very beautiful and all the other women are jealous of her. I now predict that this book is going to revolve around this women, Janie Sparks. My prediction was some what true before because Janie is coming back to this town to start a new beginning due to a bad break up with Tea Cake.
