Quotes / Fahrenheit 451

Rat: What are you reading, Goat?

Goat: 'Fahrenheit 451'. It's this science fiction novel about a hedonistic anti-intellectual society where nobody can own books, so nobody reads. Instead, everyone just sits around watching interactive wall-size TV's.

Rat: You just described my living room.

Goat: (does a Facepalm) Well, it used to be science fiction.

Rat: Hey, their TV's aren't bigger than mine, are they?
