Montag joined and changed his life for the better by making a big change and joining the survivors.

Granger compares society to the Phoenix. Why does he make this comparison? According to Granger and his analogy, what is the only way society will ever change?
Granger describes the mythological phoenix which, every few hundred years, would burn itself up, and be reborn from its ashes. Granger adds that the society of humans does the same thing.
