Question

Faber says he bears some responsibility for the dismal state of the world. What is the source of fabers guilt?

Answer 1

Faber´s guilt comes from his inability to act and his shyness, he is way too hard on himself though, and there´s so much only one person can do, even as he faced the odds he did.

His cowardice is really the source of his shyness, he can´t even go to Montag printer friend without having him on the earpiece, he is one of the few intellectuals left in their society ,he´s not very responsible though as they were fighting a losing battle.  

And even if he had done more, it would´ve been meaningless because the minds of the people wouldn´t had been swayed by the voice of one more person.

Answer 2

Faber’s guilt comes from his inability to act and his shyness, he is way too hard on himself though and there is so much that only one person can do, even as he faced the odds he did.

Further Explanation:

Faber’s guilt comes from his cowardice. Everyone in the story can very easily find out that Faber is not brave and people from the story such as Montag has to convince Faber to go to his printer friend and when Faber gives Montag an earpiece so that he actually hears what he is talking about and he is with him without actually being there. Faber is one of the very few intellectuals who are left in the society but people don’t believe that he had much in the way of responsibility because the fight which they were taking part in was already a losing battle.  

Even if Faber would have done more, that would not have resulted in changing the destiny of the battle because the minds of the mass would not have been swayed by one more mere voice and because of all these things, Faber’s guilt stems from his inability to act but he becomes too hard on himself as he was always facing odds all the times.
