Though he never took part in any mob activities, he still gathered money from family that did. He never did any mob dealings because he felt that if he ever needed to gain money or possessions, he would gain them for the benefit of others. “This is my personal favorite characteristic of him, and most likely the smartest decision he ever made in his life.” States my Aunt Jenny about the mobster deals that Da’dooch turns down.

That night when Kiowa got wasted, I sort of sank down into the sewage with him… Feels like I’m still deep shit.”(Page 150) Bowker is also intelligent and is well supported by his parents, but he did not see any meaning in getting a job or even going to school. He does not have the words to explain what he went through or how he feels and he tries to hide it. Norman really wants his story told, so he sent a letter to Tim O’ Brien and ask Tim to write itfor him. He believes that Tim can express how he feels or get the right words out, but the story did not satisfy Norman and he commits suicide 8 months later in the locker room of a YMCA in his hometown. Norman’s role in this book is to help Tim to go from being a storyteller, or writer, to being a soldier.
To throw them off as he performs his own inquiry? Two months pass and he accomplishes nothing, and when he finally does try to prove Claudius’ guilt, he makes it obvious that he knows of his uncle’s sins. The answer is much simpler. While Hamlet cries that he cannot “weep for [Hecuba]” (2.2.587) and how he cannot act or have the passion like the player, he has actually deceived himself, for he has played the part of the mad man so well, that he does not even recognize his own slip into madness. It immediately needs to be pointed out that Hamlet is a man of a very high education.
Hester is the least sinful because she only committed adultrey and that she never told Arthur chillingworth was her husband. The next most sinful person is Reverend Arthur dimmesdale.

Candy has pledged his savings to the project of the dream ranch, and cannot let go of his one remaining hope of a pleasant old age when Crooks says it will never happen. When Candy fools himself, saying ‘You god-damn right we’re gonna do it’, we realize just how pathetic and vulnerable he is. It is very hard not to feel pity for him at this point. Overall, therefore, there are many characters in the book towards whom we feel sympathetic, and there are many who are also pathetic: generally the two things go together, but Curley is perhaps the exception who proves the
Reaction This is our first introduction to John and he is quite a character! He shows us his “James Dean rebel without a cause” attitude and reveals that he is close to being a real delinquent. He hasn’t yet taken the more serious steps of real crime, but he has no interest in school, doesn’t play sports, and generally hates everything, especially teachers and authority figures. We get a sense that he has the potential for choosing a lifethat wouldn’t make him exactly a model citizen. It is important to note, however, that he has voluntarily chosen to give up cursing, at Lorraine’s request, which shows he may have a side of his character that understands how to share and show respect.
George only had one choice, and that was to take care of Lennie himself. Even though the dream was more achievable now that Lennie was gone, it ment nothing to George. Everything that George ever had in his mind was destroyed with the mistake of leaving Curley's wife and Lennie together. The best laid plans of mice and men often go wrong. In conclusion the reader feels most sympathetic for George because taking care of Lennie caused him many unavoidedable problems, emotional burdens that will haunt him for the rest of his life, and a shattered dream.
He no longer has hope in the town he grew up in. “I always thought Maycomb folks were the best folks in the world, least that’s what they seemed like.” He no longer thinks Maycomb people are good people, he has lost his faith in them. One man cannot be completely good or evil, everyone has a bit of everything in them, and usually, the hidden side surfaces in the most unexpected, severe of times. Also, anything can serve as a pathway, a route of some sort, from childhood to
This is the only time in the novel where Kavalerov sees a legitimate reflection of himself in the mirror. Soon after, while dreaming, Kavalerov proves himself to be within the mirror’s reflection, instead of his father: “No one has ever loved me without being paid for it. As for whores, even they would try to take me for all they could,” (271). Kavalerov pities his father for his lack of beauty, though Kavalerov is the one that repels the lowest of women. Kavalerov has become his father, though he only admits it in dreams.
