The controller "prefers to do things comfortably". He wants to rid of an unpleasant thing because he doesn't want to do things the hard way whereas he can do it simply. Contrary to the controller, the Savage wants to put up with an unpleasant thing: "I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness, I want sin". Personally, I think that it is better to get rid of unpleasant things. I believe everybody have the right to have a nice life empty of all those unpleasant things and it's an obligation to everyone search the peace and the happiness.

4- The controller presents to us a life based on the comfort.
But this conception of life
has some drawbacks:
-The person will get bored
-The person will not challenge his life
-The person will not progress
Savage presents to us a life based on the danger and on the inconveniences.
This
conception of life has some drawbacks:
- The life of the person will be short
- He will have a big risk to die earlier
- He will not enjoy his life because he will have all the time the fear to die
5- No, there is no conciliation between them because both stay on their opinions.
Me, I don't have preference, I think the best is to combine those sorts of life.
The
comfort avoids us to make an effort.
The danger gives us adrenalin and sensations.
So, combine the two sorts of life is better for the human.
Summary :
Mond reveals to his friend that passion represents an instability and it is the cause of the
end of civilization.
The passion brings the desire to be noble or heroic to prove to the other
their superiority.
But in a society organized and without war or problems there is no place
to the noble or the heroic.
He also added that we don't need to the inconveniences and the
dangers because the comfort is here and it gives them the happiness.
When the Savage
heared that, He have contested and he have insisted that dangers and inconvenients are
required in our life..
