Should Montag now feel guilty about letting the woman burn herself alive in her own hous or should he have felt guilty when he started burning people's houses and their books?
Montag should have felt guilty when he first started burning people's houses and books because it is a wrong thing to do. He is lucky his house hasn't been burned yet because of the books he has. No one wants to have their house burned to ash. Montag's guilt kicked in at the wrong time because letting a woman die is bad, but if death is the only thing that makes you feel guilty then something is seriously wrong with you and you should probably see professional help.

Fahrenheit 451
So now that we have finished with Hamlet and moved onto our new literary adventure, I want to know what everyone is thinking. Anyone who is reading Fahrenheit 451, please let me know, what are you thoughts so far as you have begun this book. How has what happened so far impacted you? What are you feelings towards Montag's relationship with his wife Mildred, along with his new found friend, Clarisse? Do you find it a little odd that Montag has been spending time with someone that is significantly older than he? Just give me a little bit of feedback on what you think about the book so far.

Act 4 scene 5
First, her father slain:
Next, your son gone; and he most violent author
Of his own just remove:
could this possibly be a double meaning?
Since Claudius is looking for a way to get rid of Hamlet he says this to incorporate Hamlet's journey to England, or he could have said this to "foreshadow" a death/murder that may/will happen later.
Even though he is right in front of Gertrude he talks like Hamlet will never come home, even though he is only going to "settle things" in England. That was Claudius's reason for sending him.
This may be obvious but i want to make sure i have this right... Ophelia sings all the time because she is/has gone crazy because of her father's death... is that right? I also think that Laertes has fallin in love with Ophelia and she doesn't even realize it. Either that or she has gotten to the point where she doesn't even care about what goes on around her because of her madness.
