Journal Pages 48-56

Page: 48 (Sick)

The word sick struck me. Montag had endured the inferno inside his head. He was sick with hotness. He watched the woman die the night before, and he decided to stay home sick. Mildred, not caring for his feelings or sanity for that matter, orders him to go to work. She is concerned with him sleeping 5 hours later than usual, but she orders him to get up. 

Page: 51 (Firemen)

The word firemen struck me. Mildred told Montag that he should have thought of the consequences of becoming a fireman. Montag states that he had no choice of becoming a fireman, because it was in his family. I wouldn't blame him, in his society everything is set in stone.
