"I ain’t got no choice…if a fella’s got somepin to eat an’ another fella’s hungry – why, the first fella ain’t got no choice."
– John Steinbeck
The Grapes of Wrath, Chapter 6. Muley Graves decides that he must share his meal with Tom Joad and Jim Casy. Muley is a subscriber to Casy’s theory that we are all part of one great community of love. Muley offering to share his food with others stands in stark contract to the tractor driver, who feeds his family at the expense of others going hungry.
