'Discuss the importance of dreams Essay\r'

'He compares them with early(a) hoi polloi who had pipe dreams of owning a farm. â€Å"I see hundred of men interject by on the road an’ on the ranches … ; an’ every damn single of ’em got a undersize piece of land in his head. An’ never graven image damn one of ’em ever gets it. ” He believes Lennie is crazy. Notice that unlike the different workers, Crooks job is perpetual and secure. When Candy sum ups in and starts call on the carpeting round the dream and how they nourish most of the money for the dream, he changes his wit and wants to be a part of it â€Å"… want a hand to work for nonhing-just his keep, why I’d come an’ lend a hand.\r\nI ain’t so crippled I mass’t work like a son-of-a-bitch if I want to”. And because of this, his confidence has built up and tints he can do anything. Curley’s wife comes in into the scene and reduces Crooks’ confidence by sayi ng she is tone ending to put him into trouble. She feels she is better than him because of his colour. â€Å"Well, you keep your place then, Nigger. I could get you strung up on the direct so easy it ain’t flat funny” And this makes Crooks lose all hope of becoming a part of the dream because he thinks that is the substance George and Lennie will possibly treat him when he whole shebang on the farm.\r\nâ€Å"… well jus’ forget it, ‘I didn’t mean it. Jus’ foolin’. I wouldn’t want to go no place like that”. Notice what Crooks says near people having dreams but not being up to(p) to fulfil them, he knows that people boast other priorities and problems and the dream only remains a dream. This reflects on what Lennie does and how the dream is destroyed. Curley’s wife also had a dream but her dream was unlike the other characters that had dreams. Her dream was to become a famous actress and be in the cinem as, and she believes everything other people tell her about her talent\r\nâ€Å"Coulda been in the movies, an’ had nice clothes… an’ had pitchers taken of me… ” She confessed to Lennie that she did not like her husband Curley and that she just conjoin him to get away from her boring life because she prospect getting married would provide new experiences for her â€Å"So I married Curley. Met him out to the Riverside bound Palace that same night”. She has this dream because the people in the movies had a life of glamour and she precious to live like that. She also has this dream because she is not treated fairly on the ranch and has no-one to talk to (apart from Curley)\r\nâ€Å"Ain’t I got a objurgate to talk to nobody? Whatta they think I am, anyways? … ” So because of this, she is always seeking anxiety in the revile places which eventually lead to her death. Her dream was shattered when she let Lennie stroke her h air. In death, she look very peaceful unlike when she was alive and had problems. The characters of the book â€Å"Of Mice and Men” have dreams at some time of their life. They have these dreams so as to escape the hardship of life in the 1930’s. They also had dreams for the urge for something good that could make them feel very good about themselves.\r\nSome of the dreams perchance were not meant to come true (Curleys wife’s dream) but we come to see how close George and Lennie come to achieving theirs. If Curley’s wife didn’t seek for attention and Lennie did not have the fascination for soft things, they would have had the chance to have another way of life. exhibit preview only The above preview is unformatted text edition This student written piece of work is one of many that can be found in our GCSE John Steinbeck section.\r\n'
