        1. "'When you tell your amazing trip to her, over the years, won't bitterness gnaw at her?'"(Bradbury 268) Bramante, carries Bradbury's understanding of the human emotions and characteristics to the reader.
        2. Dialogue is used as a way to develop characters
          1. "'You have ruined us... Our money used for this - this thing. When it should have been spent on equipment'"(Bradbury 275). Maria originally cared about Bodoni, but through this dialogue, Bodoni's actions have made Maria to change and to speak out against him.
        3. Narrator
          1. Does not seem like a character
