One Flew Over the Cuckoo nest: Quote 6

“He’d be close to a month in this nuthouse and it might be a lot better than a work farm, what with good beds and orange juice for breakfast, but it wasn’t better to the point that he’d want to spend a couple of years here.” Page 162

This quote is really important in the book because it is when McMurphy’s attitude really turns around and changes, for the first time he starts to keep quiet about things and not take charge but hold back. It is from this point forward that he really starts to reconsiders all that he has done, he finds out that Nurse Ratched can control when he leaves.
