-This shows Montag's thinking before meeting Clarisse. One can't really think little about nothing, but I suppose this shows that maybe Montag has the capability to think unlike the rest of his society.

--Comparing Montag's hands to those of a conductor basically means that Montag is creating something beautiful and harmonious by setting fires.

--This is the beginning of the hands motif.

I think this could be a foreshadow--someone probably does know about Montag's hidden books!!

The list in this sentence implies that Montag is hearing things in short bursts.

Pg. 15: "One drop of rain. Clarisse..." Same here!

Connection to Bradbury's "The Pedestrian." This is showing that perhaps the uncle is just like Leonard Mead from the short story.

Pg. 22: "great bees...sleeping the evil out of itself."

Pg. 23: "Hound leaping out like a moth...finding its victim...inserting its needle and going back to its kennel to die as if a switch has been turned."

Is this because the Hound is annoying, especially to Montag?

After Clairese askes this Montag responds with of course im happy why wouldn't I be? This makes me think if Montag is really happy or is he just saying this.
