The Mind In Fahrenheit 451

Our minds are powerful, how we think makes us who we are, the more our minds open and

absorb makes our brain realise who we are. In the novel, Fahrenheit 451, it is shown that people did not think in a right mindset. In the dystopian world that Montag lives in, people are controlled by the government, they are their minds are isolated, and the importance of books is not shown as well as they should in this upside.

Life changes, which leads humans to change, some changes are little others are dramatic, some

lives become upside down. As one learns what is in their mind and heart sometimes led them to explode.One of the hardest thing to admit is that you hit reality as Montag said “I'm so damned unhappy, I'm so mad, and I don't know why. I feel like I'm

putting on weight. I feel fat. I feel like I've been saving up a lot of things, and I don't know what. I might even start reading books”(62). Breaking points are special, some have a higher tolerance than others. As a fireman ,a man, who stopped people from expanding their minds from learning who they were. After some time he wanted to know what the big deal was.

Clarisse had talked to him, treated him like a real person she made him think about what is really happened in the world. The impact that she had on him changed his life quickly.Changes in a person can be from not know who they are, someone gets lost in their own minds as books expand it the mind. Books change everything in our minds, they make us think more critical thinking is one of the most important things in life as well in their messed-up world. They saw how the government wants to control them, the government's laws are ridiculous the laws were to control them. The people did not fight for what was right because they did not know what was right.One can say one thing one day and have a completely different idea the next day. The brain is not perfect, changes will happen some changes are seen worse, criticizing is one of the biggest things people are scared of.

Different society lives in different ways, worlds are not as perfect as wished. Montag lived in a

dystopian society the total opposite, but was noi seen as it really was. In our world fireman with putting out fires Clarisse had the sense of the world she lived in as she said “Is it true that long

ago firemen put out fires instead of starting them?”(6). In the dystopia that they live in the government controlled their minds so they would not think for themselves. They have to learn to think critically, an important way to learn to think critically is reading books. They ban books, to complete the job firemen would burn them all the books.Our mines are prison the ones who saw the world and who thought for themselves. Saw the change in all of them in the world if they thought for themselves the power would shift. The leader should not have power if they do not know how to control people. If people knew how to think for themselves, they would hate them, the government to a point where they would overthrow them. Power should be given to one who can show the people what is right but at the same time not rely on something that isn't meant for them to have. The way they controlled the people was not to make the life better, but to have them under control so that they could do what they wanted because as Clarisse said “Six of my friends have been shot in the last year alone. Ten of them died in car crashes”(27). The government was not doing anything to save those teenagers. If they wanted to make their lives better they would have put better laws. Laws that's just make people stop thinking for themselves, they could have found another way to have people follow the laws. It was not right to be punished for something so silly in this Society you for something so crazy. If someone thought for themself, saw something wrong in this world you were crazy, so much not have to live with being themselves and being called crazy they should be who they want to be known who everybody else wanted to beat them to be judgment was one of the biggest things for them. She was just like that she had to see her shrink because of what she saw in her mind.This dystopia could have been stopped if they were not selfish and focused on something other than themself. They could have change the world, the society, it has been ruled by someone who would use up our right instead of trying to hurt them.
