George takes care of him on the notion he will be able to teach Lennie the ways of life and in the end he will be fine and they will start a farm. Many times Lennie proves that his personality is unchanging and he has great trouble learning. He forgets constantly what gets him in trouble such as killing animals with his monstrous hands or touching the girl in the red dress. As George realizes the state of mind is in he begins to become upset with Lennie yet sympathetic because he knew ironically Lennie wouldn't completely understand or even remember being lectured. With the realization that Lennie was much dumber than he had known not being able to remember most things George began to see the relationship dissolve to a father-son type of relationship. Georges important quote "Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no family. They don't belong no place. . . . With us it ain't like that. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us. We don't have to sit in no bar room blowin' in our jack jus' because we got no place else to go. If them other guys gets in jail they can rot for all anybody gives a damn. But not us." can be seen as the hope that kept George with Lennie but by the end of the novel it is just a habitually story George tells Lennie to make him feel
