how long to work to be able to afford 'The Dream'

with restless eyes and sharp, strong features"

Honest with people he trusts, tells slim about
a trick he played on Lennie and felt guilty for
Friendship With Lennie
Can be rational and thoughtful, but easily
gets frustrated and angry with Lennie
-
Knows that Lennie was wrong for killing Curley's Wife,
but understands that he didn't mean it

-
With Lennie, George feels a
strong sense of responsibility
