Do you ever wonder, about family, about love, about affection? In the society of Fahrenheit 451, these words mean nothing, they are merely ever thought of. Most people live within their homes, interacting with their parlor walls, disregarding the outside world. In this essay, the relation of feelings to society in Fahrenheit 451 will be explained.

Montag wants to be able to think for himself for once, to do what he wants. Next, everything in the Fahrenheit 451 society is fake, its made by the government, not by the people.

This society could never exist, because there is always a rebel, or someone who
