Fahrenheit 451 could not of had a better plot. Not only was the novel thrilling the entire time but taught us knowledge over ignorance. I think that Fahrenheit 451 was a great book.

In the book Fahrenheit 451, written by Ray Bradbury, the author predicts the future of today’s society. Bradbury predicted the future of today’s technology and societal issues. Some technology from the book that is similar to today is the small electronic earpieces that fit into peoples’ ears to communicate with people; nowadays, it exists and people call it Bluetooth. In addition, there was large flat screen televisions that were the size of a wall. Technology is part of the societal issues from the book, they are similar to today’s society because the people do not care about reading or gaining knowledge anymore, it’s all about television and technology. In addition, suicide is not taken care of or prevented properly It is almost as suicide is taken as a joke. Actually, there are many ways today’s society is similar to the book, society that Bradbury based in the future containing advanced technology and societal issues.

Book-burning is the first thing that is explained about this future based society of Fahrenheit 451. Burning books is the obliteration of the single thought on paper or in one word- censorship. Books are considered evil because they make people question and think. All intellectual curiosity and thirst for knowledge must be quelled for the good of the state — for the good of conformity. Without ideas, everyone conforms, and as a result, everyone should be happy. When books and new ideas are available to people, conflict and unhappiness occur. Some of the many different motifs in the novel Fahrenheit 451 are conveyed through the use of various sardonic lines and connotations planted throughout the book. On the matter of technology and modernization it explains how TV reigns supreme in the future because of the "happiness" it offers. People are content when they don’t have to think, or so the story goes. TV aside, technology is the government’s means of oppression, but also provides the renegade’s opportunity to subvert. Rules and order is another popular topic written into the book. It is stated that “All books can be beaten down with reason.” This was said by Captain Betty, a quote ironically coming from a book itself. Much of the restrictions on the general populous are self-enforced. The government has taken away the citizens’ ability to dissent and marred all dissatisfaction with a cheap version of "happiness," a.k.a. TV. This means

Sandy Hook Elementary School. San Bernardino. Paris. What do all of these places have in common? They fell victim to unpredictability. Mass shootings are not new to our society, but they are still a devastating problem that should not exist any longer. Mass shootings connect to the novel, Fahrenheit 451, through both the unnecessary violence and the absence of humanity that are evident in the novel. Mass shootings are a devastating problem in our society, and now their numbers have escalated to a new level. This change reflects how both our society and our humanity is beginning to crumble, solutions like banning unnecessary and excessive fire arms are currently being enacted.

Ray Bradbury wrote the book 451 to help us not make poor decisions in the future, but will that attempt to help society go up in flames? We should take in his warnings and prepare for the worst but always hope for the best in the future of our great nation and country.

"Fahrenheit 451", and "Animal Farm", are influential novels, displaying the theme of journey. Throughout these novels, the importance of characters, and decisions influence the plot. "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury, tells the story of a depressed fireman in a futuristic dystopia. With books deemed illegal, fireman, Guy Montag destroys printed books for a living. While George Orwell's "Animal Farm", takes place in the Manor Farm run by Mr.Jones, an alcoholic human who labors the animals on the farm. In both books, the hardships the characters face affects the impact of their expedition. The pieces, “Animal Farm” and “Fahrenheit 451”, exhibits the theme of journey through beginnings, hesitation, and struggles.

The mid August heat is blazing as crews break down the temporary stage from last night's concert. The stage was set in what looks to be almost a half mile long and football field wide dry river bed. I can see the appeal of placing a stage here with the Aventine and Palatine Hills on each side to accommodate hundreds of thousands of spectators who would be able to see the stage. Once the stage is broken down this prime real estate in the middle of Rome, Italy will serve as a large park, but it was not always this way, the same reasons this park is used for concerts today is why the Circus Maximus was constructed here in the Valley of Murcia, Rome.

"You should have seen how wisely proceeded-with what caution-with what foresight-with what dissimulation I went to work!"

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a novel that illustrates what could happen to our society in the future. The novel portrays a society in which books, excluding comic books and other simple technical books, are banned and burned for the good of the society as the people believed. The books are seen as a source of unhappiness and, therefore, the society has decided to Ban them and put the fireman in charge of maintaining the censorships. I believe that books are not only banned because they make people unhappy but because they make people unequal. I believe that censorship of books is indented to make everyone in the society equal.

Frank does not understand. He’s not sure that he wants to. Plato has been explaining his idea for some time. “It’s simple, Frank,” says Plato. Frank focuses on Plato’s hands, which are waving round and round. Like beating an egg, Frank thinks. Plato is explaining something about the screen. He is very smart. Frank would like to be smart like Plato, but he is comfortable in his chair and he is not sure he wants to think too hard today. Frank looks down at his slippers. He likes his slippers. They are brown velvet, and worn in just the right amount. “You’re not listening,” says Plato. “Yes I am.” Frank still does not understand what Plato is talking about; perhaps he will get H to explain it to him later. 2.

The main point of this chapter states that the real motivation for any quest in literature is the search for self-knowledge. Essentially, the given reason for a particular quest is never the true motive for embarking on the quest. The five components of a quest include the quester, a specific place to go, a stated reason for going, different challenges or obstacles, and the actual reason for going on the quest.
