Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease,

Fahrenheit 451 And Cautions For Society
859 words
Much of what the future holds are consequences of
the events that have already taken place. Ray
Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit 451 is a story about a
lifestyle in the future that has evolved from our
present, but in a seemingly different world. There
is no flow of ideas, and the main purpose in a
person's life in those days was to relax, not
think, and be happy. Despite the seemingly
unreality of the world in the future, the author
is using it as a cautionary tale of what may
become of our society....

this. Macbeth was not only a victim of his own
actions, but also of the human condition and the
