Dharma Bums 1-24

"I took pitty on him and went over and said, "How about a little wine to warm you up? Maybe you'd like some bread and cheese to go with you sardines." pg 4

This quote shows how caring the narrator is. He is with some random bum that he has never met before and acts very intraverted. He says nothing to the narrator but still he offers him food and wine. This shows his personality and that he is very nice to people.

"I'd huddle and meditate on the warmth, the actual warmth of God, to obviate the cold; then i'd jump up and and flap my arms and legs and sing." pg 6

The two parts of this quote show great contrast. This could leed up to other htings in the book. This man meditates and then flaps his arms. He is useing the actual warmth of God to not be very cold. But he does not rely on it he also jumps around for warmth.
