Crooks spends his free time reading books, taking care of his horses, and contemplating life. He is often isolated and lonely, so he finds solace in these simple activities.
Lonliness :)
Crooks, the stable buck, is important in "Of Mice and Men" as he represents the discrimination and isolation experienced by African Americans during the 1930s. Through Crooks, Steinbeck also explores themes of loneliness and the need for companionship, highlighting the vulnerability of those who are marginalized in society. Crooks' interactions with the other characters shed light on the pervasive racism and prejudice of the time.
Crooks' loneliness can be seen as being different from the others because even though they are all victims of racial prejudice you can also argue that they all have something in common whereas crooks is completely isolated by the "Jim crow laws" which separate him from all white people and state that he must call them by Sir/Madam etc. Also because they can all socialize and be together in the barn (they will not be completely isolated from all human life whereas crooks will spend all day alone in the barn. This can be shown when he almost starts to doubt his existence when he is wondering if everything is real or not (due to there being no one around to tell him whether he was asleep or not) this is backed up when he says "s'pose you couldn't go into the bunk and play rummy 'cause you was black. How'd you like that?" and ""A guy goes nuts it he ain't got nobody. Don't make a difference who the guy is, long's he's with you i tell ya" he cried "I tell ya, a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick."" It all shows that although the others are lonely as they have no one who is close to them, they all have each other and even though they are separated by prejudices there is nothing stopping them from being with one another. Crooks on the other hand is completely separated by the way people treat him and is made to feel like an outsider by society.
Yes, that line is from the character Crooks in John Steinbeck's novel "Of Mice and Men." Crooks utters this statement to emphasize his isolation and the racial discrimination he faces as a Black stable hand on the ranch. It reflects the pervasive prejudice and alienation experienced by marginalized individuals during that time.

no they did not get any free time beacuse of all the work and all of the walking they did
Crooks' bunk, which is neat and orderly, suggests that he values organization and takes pride in his living space. It also reflects his desire for privacy and independence, as he keeps his personal belongings separate from the other ranch workers. Overall, his bunk reveals a sense of self-sufficiency and a need for personal space in a community where privacy is limited.
We are free of constraints that other must endure. Nobody is all free for all time.
Because he is all alone and has no friends of his own... He wants his own companionship with someone on the ranch
