• "Turned the corner" usually refers to beginning a new chapter of "something"
• In the story the candle is referred to as a symbol of comfort, intimacy and is easily created
• All science, starts with science fiction
  -Passage from Pg. 5
  "The autumn leaves blow over the moon lit pavement in such a way as to make the girl who was moving seemed fixed to a sliding walk, letting the motion of the wind and the leaves carry her forward."-sliding walk?? What does that mean, the wind itself cannot carry someone
  -Passage from Pg. 7
  "Her face bright and white as snow." The author is talking about his view of people, which in a sense is the babbling idiot inside all of us
• Montag starts to realize how much Clarisse has gotten him to start thinking about himself and his relationship with his wife seems to be showing how there is a feeling of separation and as well as a lack of intimacy between the two of them.
