"It is loneliness that makes the loudest noise. This is true of as of dogs." -Eric Hoffer. This quote relates to the story __of Mice and__ Men very well because almost everyone in this book experiences loneliness. With the exception of George and Lenny, who always had each other.

"George said 'Guys like us ain't got no fambly. They make a little stake an' they blow it in. They ain't got nobody in the worl' that gives a hoot about 'em---' 'but not us,' Lenny cried happily."-Pg.104 George and Lenny traveled everywhere together and almost nobody else ever did that, and Lenny was so proud of that as you can see. They were never lonely, they always had each other. George always complained about how life could be so much easier if he didn’t have Lenny with him. Though in reality he knows that if he didn't have Lenny he would be like all of the other guys, lonely, filled with sorrow and spending all of their money on drinks and "cat houses" .He just doesn't know how to express his feelings.

“‘This is just a nigger talkin', an' a busted back nigger. So it don't mean nothin', see?' “- Pg.71 This was a statement that Crooks made in the book __"of Mice and Men"__ and as you can see he is a very lonely man. People don't even listen to him just because of his race. To me that is just not right. You should not judge a person on the color of their skin. In life it should not be about what you see on the outside but what lies within a person. Sometimes all a person wants is someone to talk to, for example in this story that's how Crooks feels. All he asks is for someone to talk to but he cannot get that because he is too scared to even make an attempt because he feels as if, if he were to even make and attempt that they would either ignore him or judge him because of the color of his skin and NOBODY should have to feel that way. EVERYONE deserves the right to have someone to talk/Communicate with.

"'George wouldn't do nothing like that. I been with George a long time. He'll come back tonight--'". By this quote you get the impression that Lenny really loves and cares about George.. But not only that Lenny Depends on George to be there for him, be with him through everything, & get him out of trouble when it is needed. Lenny would be so lost in life if he did not have George there with him. If there is one thing Lenny is scared to death of it is loneliness. I honestly believe that the fact
