Through the firemen, who burn books and wear the number "451" on their helmets, fire symbolizes destruction. (451°F is the temperature at which paper and books burn.) Yet at the same time, Clarisse reminds Montag of candle-light, and so fire, when controlled, symbolizes the flickering of self-awareness and knowledge.]]> 2020-11-18 19:35:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/938525018 warinann000 https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/938549416 Fire is used to burn books, houses, and sometimes even the people in the houses. In this society, books are illegal. Firefighters´ jobs are to burn these books and houses. The fire burns at 451 degrees. The reason why the firefighters are burning books, is to censor the people in the society, from information that the government doesn´t want them to obtain.]]> 2020-11-18 19:41:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/938549416 salibmak000 https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/938569170 "Burn all, burn everything. Fire is bright and fire is clean."
¨It was a pleasure to burn.¨
"Those who don't build must burn. It's as old as history and juvenile delinquents."
"What is it about fire that's so lovely? No matter what age we are, what draws us to it?... It's perpetual motion; the thing man wanted to invent but never did. Or almost perpetual motion. If you let it go on, it'd burn our lifetimes out."]]> 2020-11-18 19:45:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/938569170 warinann000 https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/943196761 Fire represents destruction. It is greedy, and never stops eating. It is a normal thing in the society that they live in. Fire is good to most people, but not to everyone. I interpret fire as what is keeping the society censored from information that the government does not want them to know. It can ruin things at the speed of light, yet is associated with fireflies and words with positive connotation. Most people in the society are brainwashed to think that the fire is beautiful and a wonderful thing that is doing something important. They praise the fire, but what they don´t see is that it is eating away the things that are actually important, the things that bring life to the dull world that they live in.]]> 2020-11-19 19:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/943196761 mangrlau000 https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/977364207 2020-12-01 19:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/977364207 mangrlau000 https://padlet.com/mangrlau000/rv19lt50jn1yuzr/wish/978139508 Fire causes destruction, thus the broken glass.
