The dharma bums

p.94-120

-"Big jar of crickets, give me another drink coughlin, about one tenth of an inch long with huge white antennae and hatch 'em myself, little sentient beings in a bottle that sing real good when they gros up."

-I took this quote to show the drinkign problem that this book shows. they drink for everything and every problem they have. like here, there is this big cricket so they drink to not get scared and just to relax. The alcohol problem is defenitly present in this book.

-"His name meant white obscurity, his name meant he who lives in the hills back of northern-white-water where i'm gonna go hiking, by god, it must be full of steep piney gorges and bamboo valleys and little cliffs."

-This quote shows the simplicity of their lives. they have very simple lives and many things mean a lot and things have their own meaning for these people. they lives differently but they had a very good life. Their names mean something and many people know that and their names are a big part of them.
