“[O]ne flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest . . . goose swoops down and plucks you out”

  1. To tell you the truth, I don't think you've put enough of the quote in for people to understand it at all. Maybe you could put in more for context.  


  2. A children’s song chanted by Chief Bromden’s grandmother. (McMurphy is the goose who swooped down and plucked the chicks out of the nest—the patients out of the psychiatric ward.)


  3. Isn't it about someone letting out patients from a psychiatric hospital? I read this like 2 years ago, but I think that was what it was

  4. To be perfectly honest, I just googled it out of curiosity.

    I can see that you got it from the website Novel Guide, because the word "One" is written the same way as it is on there.

    This is what it says:

    “[O]ne flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest . . . goose swoops down and plucks you out” (p. 272).

    A children’s song chanted by Chief Bromden’s grandmother. (McMurphy is the goose who swooped down and plucked the chicks out of the nest—the patients out of the psychiatric ward.)

    Thus proving that you are indeed a joker, because you already know what it's about.

  5. maybe people won't answer the question is cuz they don't know the question if u don't know what  the quote means check it on google.com
