Question

This quote is from Fahrenheit 451. Does anybody know what it means?

"It doesn’t matter what you do, he said, so long as you change something from the way it was before you touched it into something that’s like you after you take your hands away."

Answer 1

I've not read Farenheit 451, but from the quote I believe it's trying to say "it doesn't matter what you do, as long as you impact it enough to be remembered" or something similar, though again I may be wrong as I've not read the book.
