operas. 7. They thought that each other were peculiar in their ways, and they enjoyed each other's presence. Clarisse thought that Montag wasn't in love with anyone which made her upset. Clarisse's age made Montag upset. 8. The growling represents the internal rebellion building up in Montag. Montag believes that someone programmed the Hound to not like him. 9. She is peculiar in her society, but not so much in ours. 10. Probably the classic novels, play and poems since they have stood the test of time and would have the most "negative" effect on society. 11. He drops the book, but not before the phrase is "blazed in his mind." 12. In this biblical allusion, Beatty infers that books will amount to nothing worthwhile over years, regardless of how "high" people can stack them. 13. He is crying over the death of the women who they burned. 14. Mildred was indifferent; wanted to talk about her day, her TV programs; her response indicates she has no empathy toward women: "She's nothing to me." "I hate her." She is self-serving; she does not take care of Montag when he is sick. Her indifference and cold nature has been fed by society, by the TV programs that show no emotion, no true feelings. 15. Beatty says that "minorities" and special interest groups found so many things in books objectionable that people finally abandoned the debate and started burning the books. Effective? Society's methods have not been that successful. 16. Photography, film, and television made it possible to present information into a quickly digestible, visual form, which made the slower, more reflective practice of reading books less popular. 17. Once houses were fireproofed, firemen's new mission was burning books. This was because books could allow one person to excel intellectually, spiritually, and practically over others and so make everyone else feel inferior. 18. Classics over conflicting theory and thought, philosophy and sociology that brings man only "melancholy" unhappiness, confusion. "You come away lost." 19. Mildred goes for a ride in the beetle (car), drives fast, might kill rabbits, dogs; "It's fun out in the country." It appears that she never resolves negative feelings- her attempted suicide 20. Montag wants Mildred to work things out with him; they're in this(hiding of books) together, to figure out how to get out of the mess that they're in. Montag wants to read the books to find out the answer to their problems, and then maybe burn the books. He vows to never be a fireman again. "The Sieve and The Sand" 1. She was the first person in many years that he actually liked. He was also really disappointed that he couldn't walk with her anymore after he got off work, because he really looked forward to it. 2. He believes that books will help people not repeat the same mistakes they have already made, and to actually learn from them. This exchange ended with Mildred deciding to watch "the white clown" instead of reading more books. This shows that Guy is more worried about the future and people other than himself, while Mildred is more worried about herself and what makes HER happy. 3. He says that maybe it's because they're having so much fun at home they've forgotten the world. It is said that they are rich and fed, while the rest of the world is hungry and poor, and they just don't care. Books would help the country realize that only bad things can come from this, and to come back out into the world, and not stay at home and be lazy all day. Atomic wars will never lead to anything good. 4. Montag is trying to remember the things he reads, just like when he was a child and he was trying to fill the sieve with sand; society taught people to live for the moment, not to remember 5. Faber predicted society's future, but he never said or did anything. 6. Infinite details, awareness that can be stored; afraid to forget things. 7. Quality of information- low degree, leisure to digest it- high degree, right to carry on actions based off of the first two- low degree 8. "The culture is shot through"- skeleton needs melting and reshaping... the public itself stopped reading. 9. He wanted them to experience reading a book. He can't stand to hear the women talk about nothing. 10. He was himself, a fool, (fire), and the old man, faber, (water). 11. "The dignity of truth is lost with much protesting." Don't fight society, the words will not accomplish anything. The more he argues his point, the less valid it becomes. 12. He thinks he should've kept quiet around the women. He doesn't want to burn things anymore- he begins to get angrier and angrier. "Burning Bright" 1. She wanted to do the right thing. She didn't trust Montag anymore and she couldn't take the truth about the world and just wanted to shut it away. She didn't want to deal with the situation of Montag having the books. 2. Beatty wants to challenge Montag to his core, telling him that Mildred and his neighbors betrayed him. In ordering him to destroy his own home, Beatty feels that he will have totally destroyed the tiniest flicker of counter-cultural tendency in Montag's attitude and character. 3. Captain Beatty was emotionally unhinged and one of them had to die. It does not help that Beatty taunts Montag: who has just lost everything including his wife and house. Montag also knew Beatty wanted to die. 4. Because Beatty knows that Montag is intimidated by him. He even goes to Faber, so he knows how to respond to Beatty. 5. It could go either way. In the eyes of the people in that society they probably wouldn't think it was justified. In the society with intellectuals they would probably think it was justified, because Beatty had threatened to kill one of his friends. 6. This is what they think is fun. It reveals the callousness and anger within this society--that they would run over someone for fun. 7. Montag plants books in the homes of firemen to discredit the profession and to destroy the machinery of censorship. 8. Montag reveals his pain, remorse, and determination to survive. 9. The media is more focused on having fun as opposed to something important as having war. Makes people safe and secure. Give the appearance that there is nothing wrong in the world. Media filtered the news to make sure that society was not uncomfortable with information they were receiving. Similar to the media during the 1950's in Russia. 10. Books are the key to happiness. 11. The sun burned time and wouldn't stop burning it, so if humans burned too, everything would burn, so humans had to stop. 12. It had a different intention. The fire at the campfire was for warmth and the one he was familiar with burned books. 13. Montag is mesmerized by the knowledge of the men standing around the fire. 14. They are all outcasts, lovers of books, and intellectuals. 15. They hope books will not be banned in the future and they can recite what they memorized. 16. They all died of ignorance because they did not know what was going on. Technology caused the people to be destroyed because they did not want to know that something bad, like war, was coming. 17. He realizes that she is probably going to die, so he feels pretty sad about it and will miss her. This shows that he still has feelings for her even though she ratted him out. 18. The only difference is that humans knowingly destroy themselves in a similar cycle, which makes it all more frustrating; the phoenix dies and rises again because that is its nature and humans do the same even though they are aware of destroying themselves, but they can change and fix themselves. 19. They wanted to fix what they lost. Montag is the leader and is good and knows the changes that need to be made. Montag's recent experiences have given him knowledge and experiences they don't have. 20. "And on either side of the river there was a tree of life, which bore twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." It is significant because when they reach the city it related to the recent events that had occurred like the city being bombed.
