The two men have their own thoughts, experience the theme in different ways, and also experience the theme in a similar way. After being informed of the cruel, heartbreaking situations, maybe everyone can appreciate their own life a little bit. George continually sacrifices his own happiness to take care of Lennie. George always seemed to view Lennie as his little brother. The one thing that really sets George and Lennie apart from the rest of the ranch hands is that they have each other.
Steinbeck also depicts George as someone that is greatly honest and true to his word as he is still loyal to Lennie even after a promise made such a long time ago. To anyone, taking care of Lennie is not an easy task. It's no different for George.
He has complained in heaps of occurrences that Lennie is difficult to handle. Since Lennie is mentally challenged, George repeatedly thinks about how much simpler his life could be without Lennie.
Lennie does not think of others; he just does whatever he wants. Although Lennie loves George and wants to be in his life his actions tell different. Lennie acts on impulse, and that will push George away even more.
The longer George and Lennie stay together the more George is being pushed. Lennie cannot keep secrets nor keep George out of trouble. Happy is continually taking after the feelings of other individuals. Whether it 's his dad Willy, or his mom Linda, he quite often ensures that his opinion happens in the meantime as others '.
In spite of the fact that he is generally successful in his occupation, he has his father 's absolutely impractical self-confidence and. George has many strengths, however probably his greatest strength is his brain.

Milton is the last name of the author of one of Steinbeck 's favorite works, Paradise Lost. In that epic poem, Adam and Eve fall from grace in the Garden of Eden.
Because of their fall, mankind is doomed to be alone and walk the earth as a lonely being. Some critics believe George represents that doomed man who longs to return to Eden.
His one chance to avoid that fate is his relationship with Lennie, which makes them different from the other lonely men. But despite this companionship, at the end of the book, George is fated to be once again alone. George's personality often reflects both anger and understanding. Of the two men, he is the one who thinks things through and considers how their goals can be reached. Once Candy makes the stake possible, George comes up with the details: where they will get the ranch, how long they must work to pay for it, and how they will have to keep a low profile in order to work for the next month.
George also foresees possible complications and gives Lennie advice about what he must do in order to help their future. While George can be very rational and thoughtful, he also gets frustrated and angry with Lennie because the big man cannot control his strength or actions.
George repeatedly gets angry, so much so that Lennie knows by heart what it means when George "gives him hell. George, unlike other men, has a companion and friend in Lennie.
