a farm of their own
George and Lennie are different from other ranch workers in that they travel together and have a strong bond of friendship. George looks out for Lennie, who has a mental disability, while most ranch workers are on their own. Additionally, George and Lennie have a dream of owning their own land and working for themselves, which sets them apart from the other workers who are focused on day-to-day survival.
The two things he wants Lennie to remember is if he gets in trouble to go back to the hiding spot, and when they get to the job to just let George do the talking.
He dreams of owning his own farm with Lennie on the "fat of the land." George wants to raise enough money, and they would go together. Lennie would tend to the rabbits. That's right, but we later realize this isn't George's dream. His real dream is wanting friendship. We know this when George kills Lennie.
river in the opening scene of John Steinbeck's novella "Of Mice and Men." George is small and quick, while Lennie is large and mentally disabled. They dream of owning a piece of land one day, living off what they produce. Their contrasting characteristics and shared dream set the foundation for the story's exploration of companionship, loneliness, and the pursuit of the American Dream.
A parallel in Of Mice and Men is that George and Lennie's dream and Curley's wife's dream (to be an actress) are never realized. Also, Candy's relationship with his dog and George's relationship with Lennie are parallels because both Lennie and Candy's dog are handicapped, and they are both dependent on their friend/master. Related to the question: A contrast in Of Mice and Men is that George is small and smart; Lennie is big and dumb. Also, Curley is mean and small; Lennie is nice and big. Hope this helps!
George instructs Lennie to hold onto the idea of their dream farm and not to speak or interact with anyone at their new job the next day. He also reminds Lennie to stay out of trouble and avoid conflict with the other ranch workers.
The two main characters in "Of Mice and Men" are George Milton and Lennie Small. They are two itinerant ranch workers who dream of owning their own piece of land one day. Their close friendship forms the heart of the story.
To own a place of their own and be their own bosses. They want to stop working for other people and have their own farm and raise their own food. They want to own their own piece of land and stop having to travel where the work is.
That they are going to work at the ranch tomorrow.
George is slim, quick-witted, with restless eyes, while Lennie is large and stocky with huge hands and muscles of a bear. So basically, they are physically opposite from each other. Also mentally, because Lennie has mental difficulties but is very kind and patient, while George is normal but can be very mean and disrespectful to him.
Unlike the other guys on the ranch who have no one to look after them, Lennie and george have each other.
Lennie from John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men" always talks about tending the rabbits on the dream farm that he and George hope to own one day. He finds comfort and solace in the idea of being able to take care of the rabbits.
