Theme 3: “In the wrong hands, technology can negatively impact our relationships and/or communities.”
Quote Part 1: “‘Mildred!!’..The small crystal bottle of sleeping tablets which earlier today had been filled with thirty capsules...now lay uncapped and empty” (Bradbury 9).
Quote Part 2: (Someone talking about their kids) “‘You heave them into the parlor and turn the switch. It’s like washing clothes; stuff laundry in and slam the lid.’” (Bradbury 93).
Quote Part 3: “The camera fell upon the victim, even as did the Hound. Both reached him simultaneously. The victim was seized by the Hound and camera in a great spidering, clenching grip. He screamed. He screamed. He screamed!” (Bradbury 149).
4. This theme is important to the understanding of story because it shows how technology limits our knowledge, and how with more technology, books become less important to society.
5. Our modern day society is becoming more and more reliable on technology, and this text shows what could happen if we use technology in the wrong hands.
