chapter 4 and 5

pg. 113
"A frenchman who had come all the way from France asked the ranger in broken English if many people committed scuicide by jumping in. 'Yes , sir, ' said the rnager. 'About three folks a year.' So it goes." I chose this quote because it is once again the phrase so it goes which is pretty much the theme throughout the novel so far. It shows how Billy feels about every bad thing that has happened to him so far. People die by jumping into the Grand Canyon......so it goes. I have never read a book that is so blunt about people dieing like Kurt Vonnegut is.
