“The voices talked of everything, there
was nothing they could not talk about, he
knew, from the very cadence and motion

in them.” (146)
How is this different from the
conversations Clarisse described?

3. Why you think Bradbury gave Montag Ecclesiastes and
Revelation?
“Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal,
flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the
great street of the city. One each side of the river stood the tree of life,
bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of
the tree are for the healing of the nations.

4. What is your
legacy?
“When I was a
boy my
grandfather
died, and he
was a sculptor.
He was also a
very kind man
who had a lot of
love to give the
world…and
when he died, I
suddenly
realized I wasn’t
crying for him at
all, but for the
things he did. I
cried because
he would never
do them
