One evening I had an encounter with a ticking bomb, and contemplated behaving like a fool, but rejected the impulse because we weren't married. |

by Russell Baker
from "Back to the Dump" |
Explanation
of the Quote |
| In the sentence previous to the quote, Baker wrote, "Now I treat women like ticking bombs." We can, therefore, understand that the ticking bomb in this quote was a woman whom Baker once met and had an impulsive sexual desire for. However, Baker did not give into his momentary sexual drive because he wanted to save the sacret moment for his future wife with the hope that he and his wife could make a couple as ideal as Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt.
從這個引句的前一個句子 "Now I treat women like ticking bombs." 可知，引句中的 ticking bomb 指的是一個女人，一個羅素貝克一見面就讓他有性衝動的女人。貝克沒有與那個女人發生性關係，因為他希望能與未來的妻子成為一對如羅斯福總統一般的理想夫妻，而理想的夫妻，應該只與自己的配偶發生性行為。 |
