if you really knew me -montag

"Montag was in the dark street again, looking at the world." (Bradbury 94) This shows that Montag isn't really looking at the whole entire world. He's just looking at the stuff around him. This showed that Montag doesn't really know what to do. "His fingers were like ferrets that had done some evil and now never rested, always stirred and picked and hid in pockets, moving under Beatty's alcohol-flame stare." (Bradbury 107) This is showing that Montag feels like he has done something wrong. Bradbury is trying to explain how Montag feels at this time.

Utopian or Dystopian - Montag

Hello everyone, Staring this blog off I would like to say that society is dystopian because instead of making the people happy with the laws they carry out for "good benefit"(Bradbury 57) Everyone is miserable and unhappy to admitting its society flaws.

Clarisse Utopian vs Dystopian

My character and I have the same opinion/view on what Utopian and Dystopian society's look like. Utopian is like a perfect society and where everyone is treat fair/equal and Dystopian is the opposite. My character Clarisse and I both would rather prefer to live in a Utopian society that is more peaceful. We like this society more because with a Utopian society it would seem as if you get a better chance to do things with your life.

Utopian vs Dystopian

            Montags idea of a utopian society is a place where everyone has free will and everyone can think what they want to think. Reading is not illegal and people can read books freely. My version of a utopian society is almost the same. Everyone has free will and can think what they want to.

If you really knew me

          If you really knew me you would know that even though i work as a fireman i am wondering about my choices of career as i see how much these people love their books and we are just killing them. Im getting curious about what are in these books that make people die for them. Also i dont know if i actually love my wife she just sits there with her "family" on the walls and i don't know who i actually married

Can you believe that happened

Dear Mildred
               Today while on a job at a house that had books we got to the house and there was a lady who wanted to save her books so badly that she refused to leave and everyone just burnt the house down and it killed her. Everyone else just kept doing there work, they didn't even care I don't know what was wrong with them.

Utopian vs Dystopian Society

Mildred's vision of a utopian is the version of the world she currently lives in. She is perfectly content to live without books, only visiting friends to do the same thing she does at home - watch TV. And when confronted by change, she becomes scared. For example, when Montag shows Mildred all of the books he's stolen, she becomes almost terrified of them. "'Mildred backed away as if she were suddenly confronted by a pack of mice that ad come up out of the floor. He could hear her breathing rapidly and her face was paled out and her eyes were fastened wide. She said his name over, twice, three time. Then, moaning, she ran forward, seized a book, and ran toward the kitchen incinerator." What we can see from this is that Mildred is perfectly content living the life that she is, and doesn't want it to change at all costs.

In my personal opinion, a utopian society wouldn't necessarily be one where everyone was happy. It would be just and fair, but also show mercy to those who deserve it. also concert tickets and plane tickets would be like 10 dollars.

Dystopia vs. Utopia (Faber)

Professor Faber is a very intelligent, realistic person. "I don't talk about things, sir, I talk the meaning of things. I sit here and know I'm alive."(77) He realizes that not all things are fun and games, that some things have meaning and are important. Professor Faber's utopia would be a world where everyone realizes the things he realizes and values things that are important. My personal Utopia would be similar, but trust to me is very important. I would like for people to all work together as a family, get done what needs to get done. Then, you could enjoy yourself and chill together.
