missed blog #2

"Like to know anything else? I'll tell you. You ain't got to guess. I'll tell you anything. Name's Joad, Tom Joad. Old man is ol' Tom Joad."

This quote show Tom's honesty, as well as how he is an open person to everyone, including complete strangers.

"It don't take no nerve to do somepin when there ain't nothin' else you can do."

This shows Tom's outlook on life and how he justifies peoples acts during the depression.

"sure—I seen it. But sometimes a guy'll be a good guy even if some rich bastard makes him carry a sticker"

This shows that Tom has a special way of relating to people, and that he is a an everyday guy

"Don't judge a book by its cover."

Although many people use this quote, I think Tom uses it truthfully, and that he really embodies this.
