In the book Mice and Men it is about two guys who are farmers and there names are Lennie and George. In the book every farmer traveles alone alone but Lennie and George are like brothers and they do not represent loneliness and are never lonely because they have each other. There is a quote about loneliness that sais "It is loneliness that makes the loudest noise. This is true of men as dog. Ithink this quote is true because people who are really lonely are begging to talk to people like crooks,curly's wife,and candy.

There were two guys whose names were George and Lennie. Lennie was a man who acted like a child and George was like a dad to Lennie and always took care of him since he was a little kid when Lennie's Ant Clara died. Lennie had always got into trouble in countries and Lennie and George would always have to move from town to town because of Lennie. One day George and Lennie went to a town to go work as farmers and a farmer named Slim told George that it was really rare to see two farmers who traveled together because every farmers is lonely because they are trying to survive and make money and dont want noone holding them back and slowing them down. One George told a story to Lennie that he told him everytime because Lennie always wanted to hear it. George would tell Lennie that one day they would buy a house and live off the land and Lennie would be able to tend the rabbits because lennie liked to pet soft stuff. And a guys named candy who was an old farmer who was lonely because they had killed his dog who was his only friend heard George and Lennie talking about it asked George if he could join them. And he told George something which was "I'd make a will and leave my share to you guys just in case i kick off cause i aint got no relatives nor nothing"pg 59. Then George thought about it and he told him that he could join them.

One day while George and the guys who were the farmers went out, Lennie stayed and went to a farm. Then Lennie saw a bright light in a bunk and went in. While Lennie went in the bunk he met a guy whose name was Crook. Crook was a farmer who was lonely and lived alone in a bunk because was black and the farmers didn't want him sleeping in the same room as them. While lennie intered the bunk, Crook was happy that Lennie had came but Crook was giving Lennie a hard time because he was acting like he didnt want him in there because Crooks was never wanted in the bunks but in reality Crooks was happy that he had someone to talk to.While Crooks invited Lennie into his bunk, Lennie was telling Crooks about him and George were going to buy a house and they were going to live off of the land and how he could tend the rabbits. Then Crooks said that he was crazy and geroge would spend his money on a whore house. Then crooks told Lennie "Well s'pose jus s'pose George dont come back. Whattle you do then"pg 72. Then Lennie got worried and he was getting mad then george came in and got him.

The next day George and the guys were outside playing horse shoes, while Lennie was in the barn crying because he had killed his dog. Then Curly's wife came in and was really lonely throught the whole story, who would try to talk to any farmer and when she tried to talk to Lennie. lennie remembered what George told him and Lennie told curly's wife that he wasnt supposed to talk to her. Then Curly's wife said "You can talk to people, but i can't talk to nobody but Curly. Els he gets mads". pg 87 Then while Lennie and Curly's wife were talking, Curly's wife let Lennie feel her hair because Lennie liked to feel soft stuff and when Lennie was messing curly's wife hair up she told him to stop feeling it loud.

Then Lennie ended up holding hr hair hard and pulling it because he got scared and the only thing he thought to do was hold on. While Curly's wife was struggling and trying to screaming, Lennie was telling her to stop screaming because George will get mad at him. Then curly's wife just stopped because Lennie killed her by busting her neck. Then Lennie got scared and he knew he was in trouble and he remembered what George told him before the got to the farm that if he did something bad to go to the spot that George told him to go and wate for him so he can go get him. Then Candy saw Curly's wife on the ground and thought she was sleeping and told her to leave but she wouldnt say or do anything. Then Candy got closer and saw that she was dead. Then Candy got George to show him what Lennie did and George told candy that he was gonna go back to the cabin so he could come back and act surprise. Then Candy went to go get the guys and show them what happened. When Curly saw his wife dead he knew that Lennie and got mad and wanted to kill him. So he got the farmers so they could go hunting for Lennie and one of the farmers went to go get his gun at his cabin and the gun disappeared and they all thought that Lennie took it but really George had it. When they all went hunting for Lennie George went to the spot he told Lennie to go and found him. Then while George found Lennie, Lennie was crying and thought George was mad at him and George told him no that he was never mad ar him and Lennie told George to tell him the story he like and George Told Lennie to look the other way and imagine it while he was telling him and while George was telling Lennie the story he pulled out the gun and shot Lennie in the back of the head.

The reason why George killed Lennie was because Curly was going to kill him when he got the chance and remembered Candy telling him that he should have killed his own dog and not let some stranger do it because he had him since he was a puppy and Candy's face is the last thing that the dog should have seen and thats why George killed Lennie. While the guys were hunting they heard the shot and found Lennie dead and saw George next to him with a gun. And a farmer named Slim told George that it was the right thing to do because Lennie was always getting in to trouble. As you can see the quote "It is loneliness that makes the loudest noise. This is true as of men as of dog" is true in this story because it describes mostly the whole story.
