After having a connection with Clarisse he grew sympathy for her and realized that he feels empty with Mildred. It was the reason the he had no connection Mildred that he had no feelings for her. The citizens had no concern of their children and partner. For example Mildred’s friend, Mrs.Phelps stated, “It’s our third marriage each and we’re independent. Be independent, we always said. He said if I get killed off, you just right ahead and don’t cry, but get married again, and don’t think of me.” Mrs.Bowles also compared her own children to laundry. On the other hand, Clarisse’s mind was packed with questions, unlike the rest of the town, and she inspired Montag to question everything as well. The human interaction he had with a real thoughtful person opened his mind and heart since he finally felt as if he counted. Without the parlor walls as a distraction he wondered about the curious, diverse girl. The author demonstrates to the reader that without human interaction we lose affection towards other real people and depend on technology to replace people. Technology makes us as heartless as a robot for we are being educated by a machine. For instance Mildred stated, “She's dead. Let's talk about someone alive, for goodness sake…. They tell me things; I laugh, they laugh! And the colours.” Their technology became their addiction, but addictions become your only happiness,
