mildred smoothed the bedclothes. montag felt his heart jump and jump again as she patted his pillow. right now she was pulling at his shoulder to try to get him to move so she could take the pillow out and fix it nicely and put it back. and perhaps cry out and stare or simply reach down her hand and say, “what’s this? ” and hold up the hidden book with touching innocence.
“school is shortened, discipline relaxed, philosophies, histories, languages dropped, english and spelling gradually neglected, finally almost completely ignored. life is immediate, the job counts, pleasure lies all about after work. why learn anything save pressing buttons, pulling switches, fitting nuts and bolts? ”
“let me fix your pillow,” said mildred.
“no! ” whispered montag.
“the zipper displaces the button and a man lacks just that much time to think while dressing at dawn, a philosophical hour, and thus a melancholy hour.”
mildred said, “here.”
“get away,” said montag.
“life becomes one big pratfall, montag; everything bang, boff, and wow! ”
“wow,” said mildred, yanking at the pillow.
“for god’s sake, let me be! ” cried montag passionately.
