Quote context

- Suicide by race, by color, by occupation by sex, by seasons of the year, by time of day.

- Suicide, how committed? By poisons, by firearms, by drowning, by leaps.

- Suicide by poison, subdivided by types of poison such as corrosive, irritant, systemic, gaseous, narcotic alkaloid, protein, and so forth.

- Suicide by leaps, subdivided by leaps from high places under the wheels of trains, under the wheels of trucks under the feet of horses, from steamboats.

- But, of all the cases on record there's not one single case of suicide by leap from the rear end of a moving train.

- And do you know how fast that train was going at the point where the body was found? 15 miles an hour.

- No. No soap. We're sunk, and we'll have to pay through the nose, and you know it.

- May I have this?

- Come on, Walter. (2)
