Additional quotes by John Steinbeck

It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is expected of him.

Dear Lord,' he said. 'let me be like Aron. Don’t make me mean. I don’t want to be. If you will let everybody like me, why, I’ll give you anything in the world, and if I haven’t got it, why, I’ll go for to get it. I don’t want to be mean. I don’t want to be lonely. For Jesus’ sake, Amen.

His ear heard more than is said to him, and his slow speech had overtones not of thought, but of understanding beyond thought.
