" So Billy uncorked it with his thumbs. It didn't make a pop. The champagne was dead. So it goes."
Page #93

1) I picked this quote because I thought it was interesting that Vonnegut used "So it goes." in this situation. In all the previous pages before this quote "So it goes." was always said after someone or something had died, this follows that pattern but it seems almost strange that he would use it to describe the champagne going flat. Its like he feels the same, "oh well, life goes on" kind of attitude towards the death of a man or a beloved dog, that he feels towards the "death" of some champagne.

2) I think it's significance in the novel is that it sets a kind of tone about death. As it was said in the novel that everyone is already dead and everyone is being born, so the fact that he can feel so emotionless is kind of backing up that idea.

3) I've watched lots of movies that talk about quantum physics and other dimensions, that's the closest thing to this novel that i can think of.
