“I remember. Montag clung to the earth. I remember”(Bradbury 153) and remember they should, but the society in Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 does not. The people of this society do not remember as the government prevents the society from retaining intelligence and remembering anything in order to keep their power and wealth. Furthermore, because the government restricts those two traits, the society has become mindless and robotic. Unless the society follows the example of the odd ones and start to accept education of the proper kind, and memories, there is a dark future ahead for the society. Knowledge and memories are essential to progressing forward for everyone, and without it people become unable to think and learn for themselves.
