Billy feels that the Tralfamadorian philosophy is correct, and so he tries to tell everyone of it through the newspapers as well as through a radio talk-show. Some Tralfamadorian philosophy includes beliefs such as: "Everything that happens must happen. Nothing can be done to change it because each movement is structured in its own particular way." "A human cannot pick and choose; he must live each moment, pleasant or unpleasant, as it comes along."
