“Well, Montag take my word for it, I’ve had to read a few in my time, to know what I was about, and the books say nothing!”(pg 62)

This passage is meaningful because it is explaining how the civilization is going around in that world. People think that books are nothing but paper, they have high technology that they now think that books are worthless. In this case, for what I think about, is that this man who said this passage grew up in an environment that didn’t allow books at all but were taught that books were evil.

When I was in 5th grade, I had a huge homework on reading. That time I was thinking to myself, why does literature even exist? I don’t need books; I just want to play around.
