* Theme- Love: characters are in a love triangle which they never escape. Ethan loves Mattie and wishes to reveal this to her, but he never truly can, and in the end they are stuck back at the Frome’s house with Zeena forever.

Matt now has a son, a good wife, and an ordinary life; he still has a good family life without going to university. In contrast with Kate, although she has good education and job, she doesn’t have her own family and in fact, she says, “I had never thought I would really love anyone.” (89) From another perspective, she seems to be the one that is going to have a sad life. Similar with Luke, when he rejects Sally it is due to his responsibility as a caregiver. He is happy with his decision since it is for his family. If Matt chooses to go to university instead and leaves Marie, he will most likely lose his happiness and truly be an emotionless “nerd” and suffers like Kate who does not truly knows the meaning of love.

As Guy Montag thinks about all that Clarisse stood for in her life, he realizes that the world cannot go on the way it is: with no value for life or nature. People didn’t care about starving countries, or deadly wars, or even real people. They were all blinded by an overly inoffensive atmosphere. Guy decides that he has to fix this, because Clarisse wasn’t like those people at all and she was the first person in years that he actually liked. He chooses to recruit the help of a retired professor in an attempt to open humanity’s eyes to the world around them, and all because of
She did, but it was half-hearted and she herself said it wasn't the truth. She had loved Tom when they'd married, she said, but she'd loved Gatsby too.

Some of her outgoing tendencies annoyed me and were sometimes a little over barring but I was blinded by our “oh so wonderful friendship.” We both had some of the same views when it came to dating and having boy friends over but soon she took this to an extreme. A guy who lived on campus enjoyed her company so much that she wanted him to sleep with her every night even though she had an off campus boyfriend. Still slightly blinded by our friendship, I said little to nothing about the situation. After about a month of his over frequent visits I began to feel very uncomfortable, especially after one day walking in on them have sex. At that point I knew our morals were clearly NOT the same.
