Bio



"After all, when we had all the books we needed, we still insisted on finding the highest cliff to jump off.
But we do need a breather. We do need knowledge. And perhaps in a thousand years we might pick smaller cliffs
to jump off. The books are to remind us what asses and fools we are. They're Caesar's praetorian guard, whispering as
the parade roars down the avenue,'Remember, Caesar, thou art mortal.' Most of us can't rush around, talk to
everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money, or that many friends. The things you're
looking for, Montag, are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine percent
of them is in a book. Don't ask for guarantees. And don't look to be saved in any one thing, person, machine, or
library. Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were headed for shore."


- Fahrenheit 451
