Everyone has dreams. Weather they are big or small, achievable or insane, everyone has dreams. In Of Mice and Men, dreams play a huge part of the story. George and Lennie had a dream to get a ranch and live off the crops and animals they would have. Curley’s wife’s dream is far from what she got in life.

Facing Dreams and Hope In A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry explores the importance of hope when working toward one's dream. Mama readily differs from her hopes and dreams coming true, for the benefit of her children. Beneatha is struggling to hold onto her hope of attending medical school as her family is giving her no support. Having this support can stop her from achieving her dream.
