like taking candy from a bb lol
the last thing Crooks says to Candy is never mind about him doing the hoein and the odd job's says he was foolin and wouldn't want to go no place like that. Although if he really meant what he said is not completely directed
"Ranch with a bunch of guys ain't no place for a girl." "They'll can me pretty soon... I won't have no place to go." "A guy on a ranch don't never listen nor he don't ask no questions" chap 2.
In John Steinbeck's novel "Of Mice and Men," the character Crooks is only referred to by his nickname. His full name is not revealed in the book.
Lennie tells Crooks about the plan he and George have (and now Candy as well) to get a little farm together. Lennie will be able to tend the rabbits, and as he and Crooks sit in Crooks' room out in the barn, Candy is in the bunkhouse "figurin' and figurin'" about the rabbits and how they might be able to make some money on them. The dream they had of "livin' offa the fatta the lan'" (living off of the fat of the land) was supposed to kept a secret, but Lennie doesn't realize that he shouldn't tell Crooks about it. At first, Crooks scoffs at the idea. He says, "No one never gets to Heaven, and no one never gets no land," but when Candy admits that it's true, Crooks wants in. However, Curley's wife winds up coming out to the barn, and she puts Crooks back in his place, so he ends the chapter telling Candy that he was just kidding about wanting to go to the dream farm with them. As readers, we know that he wasn't kidding, but we also know that Crooks is right to realize that he wouldn't be able to join with the others since he is a Black man in the 1930's south (California) and the prejudice of the whites will keep him from joining them.
The last thing Frank says in Hellraiser before he is torn apart is "Jesus wept."
Diggity...
Crooks is the kind of guy that doesn't believe in dreams because he thinks there crazy and when he hears of George, Lennie, and Candy's dream about owning a ranch he says that during his life he has saw many people who haven't established their dream of owning land because they eventually lost it in a poker game of some sort. So Candy doesn't really have dreams,and when he hears that they have the money and everything is all set. He starts believing in dreams and goals.
In this chapter, George has gone to Soledad with the rest of the ranchers, as they would often do on Saturday night. Contrary to Crooks' belief however, he has not gone to drink and visit the brothel like the other men. This is revealed when Candy says he has not taken any money with him (because they are saving up to buy the land Goerge has found). During the chapter, Crooks teases Lennie and makes him believe George will not be coming back. George does however come back at the end of the chapter and enters Crooks' room with Candy and Lennie and tells them to LEave Crooks alone.
Crooks first says that he thinks it is a bad idea because he doesnt believe that they are going to get rabbits.
dew
they lost the taste of the candy
Croks likes talking to lennie because croks listens to lennie.
