''Of Mice and Men'' - Between the Line: Motif

What was something that was repeated more then once in the book called ‘’Of Mice and Men’’?

In the book ‘’Of Mice and Men’’ there was something that happened more than once and was men coming together to get the job done. When Lennie was petting a lady dress in Weed and people were after him so his friend George worked with him to try of get him out of trouble, but that was not the only time when men came together to make a decision . For an example when Lennie and Curley was fighting after Lennie crushed Curley hand the men came together to decide that they were going to tell everybody that he got his hand caught in the machine rather than the truth. Men worked together on the farm when it was time to do the farm work like staking the hay, but it was not just all about getting the farm work done. After Lennie had killed Curley’s wife the even then they came together to find Lennie so that he could face his punishment. Every time men came together it was not always because someone was hurt, there was work to be done, or someone was in trouble but, they also came together to play games like solitaire and just have a good time.
