Montag wanted to destroy the tyranny of the Firemen that destroyed all thought and knowledge.

Explanation:

Montag wanted to place books in the homes of the firemen so that they would have their homes burned and their power destroyed.

page 85 "The only way I could possibly listen to you would be if somehow the fireman structure itself could be burnt Now if you suggest that we print extra books and arrange to have them hidden in firemen's houses all over the country so that the seeds of suspicion would be sown among those arsonists bravo i say. "

Montag hoped that by a destroying the firemen there might be room for a world where people actually felt and thought.
