Pg. 26: "Oh, they don't miss me,' she said 'Im anti-social they say. I don't mix. It's so strange I'm very social indeed'..."

-I think this shows how Clarisse's abnormal behavior translated into school, and they found reasons to kick her out. Even though she IS social, it's not the social that society is used to. That is what they mean by she doesn't mix.

Pg. 31: "Montag gazed beyond them to the wall with typed lists of a million forbidden books. Their names lept in fire, burning down the years under his axe and hose which sprayed not water but Kerosene"

-Montag's guilt of having books is creeping up on him to where he is having these thoughts, aswell as the idea of how firefighters used to put out fires, not create them.

Pg. 35: "You've been locked up here for years with a regular damned tower of Babel. Snap out of it! The people in those books never lived. Come one now."

-Beatty seems to be the only one with any intellect on things book-related. It raises suspicion that maybe Beatty himself has books, or has read books.

Pg. 41: After the conversation about where they met

"for it would be the dying of an unknown, a street face, newspaper image, and it was suddenly so very wrong that he had begun to cry, not at death but at the thought of not crying at death,..."

-Montag realizes that he doesn't know his wife like he used to and he is drifting far away from her

Pg. 42:

Hyperbole

"He felt his jaw vibrate, his eyes wobble in his head. He was a victim of a concussion."

Simile

"...He felt like a man who had been thrown from a cliff, whirled in a centrifuge, and spat out over a waterfall..."

Pg. 48

"No not water; fire"

"I've been trying to put it out, in my mind, all night. I'm crazy with trying

Montag is drowning his thoughts after meeting Clarise. It is making him question his relationship with Millie.

Pg. 67 "Is that what it was in the girl next door? I've tried so hard to figure"

This whole time Montag has been locked away with these books, he has been thinking about Clarisse constantly

"We've started and won two atomic world wars since 2022!"

The bombing now would make three? or is the war over?

"When did the numbness really begin...

the night i kicked the pill bottle in the dark, like kicking a buried mine?

Montag is still numb to his feelings toward Mildred

Pg.77

Faber goes on and talks and gives logical pieces of information and he seems to be the only logical person left in this society. His conversation seemed like the first real Montag has had this whole novel.

Pg. 77

"Of course you couldn't know this, of course you still can't understand what I mean when I say all this"

This is evidence that faber is very wise, ordinary people cannot comprehend what he is saying.

Pg.81

"And I hardly think a very old man and a fireman turned sour could do this much this late in the game..."

I think this was a foreshadow to the fact that they may start rebelling.

the war is still in place

Pg. 91

"...Quick War. Forty-eight hours they said, and everyone home. That's what the Army said. Quick war. Pete was called yesterday and they said he'd be back next week. Quick"

Millie's friends repeat the same things several times when they talk. There brains can hold a serious conversation

Pg. 92 "You know I haven't any! No one in his right mind, the Good Lord knows, would have children!"

How is Mrs. Phelps talking about the Good Lord, without books?

Pg. 99

"...They don't know that this is all one huge big blazing meteor that makes a pretty fire in spacee, but that some day it'll hit. They see only the blaze, the pretty fire, as you saw it."

The people in this society do not comprehend the problems that are present, they only care about the show that comes with it. I see it as a reality television show.

Pg. 103: "Stop blushing. I'm not needling really I'm not. I had a dream an hour ago. I lay down for a catnap and in this dream you and I, Montag, got into a furious debate on books. You towered with rage, yelling quotes at me. I calmy parried every thrust. 'Power', I said and you, quoting Dr. Johnson, said 'Knowledge is more equivalent to force!' And I said, 'Well Dr. Johnson also said, dear boy, that "He is no wise man that will quit a certainty for an uncertainty" Stick with the firemen, Montag. All else is dreary chaos!"

Beaty has the greatest knowledge on books in this story behind Faber. This is so interesting, because the book does not give us back story, we just know that at some point he indulged in books.

# data[].attributes.body
Pg. 111

"Was it my wife that turned in the alarm?"

Beatty nodded...

Millie is not at all loyal to Montag threw out this whole story. If Millie would have just stuck by his side through things, he could have maybe got through things, and we would have a whole different Montag.

Pg. 115

"Maybe the books can get us half out of the cave. They just might stop us from making the same damn insane mistakes!"

The structure of these sentences is showing how urgent and desperate Montag is to climb out of what society has now turned into

Pg. 150-165(Too much went on to pick a specific moment)

The bombing of the city is almost symbolizing a good moment and a time for evolution and adaptation. It is similar to a new beginning. They can all restart, rebuild, and repair the country.

I learned the war is a civil war. Is the other side of the war fight for books to be un banned?
