What are some examples of direct and indirect characterizations of George and Lennie in Of Mice and Men? John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men

Most authors
use indirect which includes

• physical descriptions

"The first man was smalland quick, dark of face, with restless eyes and
sharp, strong features.  Every part of him was defined:  small, strong hands, slender arms, a
thin and bony nose.  Behind him walked his opposite, a huge man, shapeless of face, with large,
pale eyes, with wide, sloping shoulders; and he walked heavily, dragging his feet a little, the
way a bear drags his paws.  His arms did not swing at his sides, but hung
loosely."

• characters'
  actions

His huge companion dropped his blankets
and flung himself down and drank from the surface of the green pool; drank with long gulps,
snorting into the water like a horse.  The small man stepped nervously beside him.

• characters' thoughts, feelings, and
  speeches

"'Guys like us, that work on
ranches, are the loneliest guys n the world.  They got no family.  They don't belong no
place....With us, it ain't like that. We got a future." []

"For the
first timebecame conscious of the outside. He crounched down in the hay and listened.  'I done a
real bad thing,' he said. 'I shouldn't had did that.  George'll be mad. An'...he said...an'hide
in the brush till he come....'"

• the comments
  and reactions of other characters

"Crooks
interrupted brutally. 'You guys is just kiddin' yourself.  You'll talk about it a hell of a lot,
but you son't get no land.  You'll be a swamper here till they take you out in a box.  Hell, I
seen too many guys.  Lennie here'll quit an' be on the road in two, three, weeks.  Seems like
ever' guy got land in his head.'"

• occurs with statements by the author, giving
  his/her opinion of the character(s). [e.g. Steinbeck writes that Slim has "God-like
  eyes."]

Steinbeck writes that Lennie drags his feet the way
"a bear drags his paws."
