On page 10, Clarisse asks Montag, "Are you happy?" This question sparks Montag's mind and sets into motion a festering idea that maybe he isn't actually happy. Clarisse in this section of the book represents change. Specifically speaking, change in Montag. Without Clarisse, Montag would not have ever had the idea that something was amiss in his life, therefore would have never changed himself. His change can be seen on a quote made shortly after the question when Montag says, "Of course I'm happy. What does she think? I'm not? he asked the quiet rooms. He stood looking up at the ventilator grille in the hall and suddenly remembered that something lay hidden behind the grille, something that seemed to peer down at him now." From this quote, it is apparent that Montag has realized that his life is not perfect.
