“Let the tears which fell, and the broken words which were exchanged in the long close embrace between the orphans, be sacred. A father, sister, and mother, were gained, and lost, in that one moment.

Let's start with the first one here. Put this in your notebook (in your own way) if you haven't been around for the classroom discussions: Montag's Character Transformation Throughout the novel Montag hears multiple voices in his head, mostly Captain Beatty's and Clarisse's.
