pg 1
"For me the pole ment everything i admired about the fire department-speed, daring, an ageless tradition offered to only a select few." I think that this quote is important to the book because it expresses Zacs' feeling towards being a fireman and how difficult it is to acheive that that position.
pg 7
"Theres' no rational explanation for why im about to voluntarily throw myself into the great flaming unknown, a place my every instict tells me i should be fleeing." This quote is important because it shows just just how scarey his job actualy is and how dangerous it is.
pg 59
"Two weeks. About two weeks Timo. ... And ur cutting bread?... Hey guys! Get in here. The new kids cutting bread." This is important because it shows how weird and ritualistic firemen are.
I think that because its a quote right out of the book the words should be spelled correctly. But i like the quotes you chose they really explain the book well. The first quote i belive explains the best because the book is mostly about how zac feels and the things he goes through during the book.
