“´What a dreadful surprise´, said Beatty. ´For everyone nowadays knows, absolutely is certain, that nothing will ever happen to me. Others die, I go on. There are no consequences and no responsibilities. Except that there are. But let’s not talk about them, eh? By the time the consequences catch up with you, it´s too late, isn´t it, Montag?.”

““What did I do so wrong”, Phoebe asked, “that you should want to humiliate me like this? Why should you want to unhinge everything? Has it all been so hideous? I should get over being dumbstruck, but I can’t. I, who never doubted you, to whom rarely occurred even to question you, and now I can never believe another world you say. I can never trust you to be truthful again. Yes, you wounded me with the secretary, but I kept my mouth shut. You didn’t even know I knew, did you? Well, did you?”.”
