George Orwell
...the object of waging a war is always to be in a better position in which to wage another war.
George Orwell
I know it is the fashion to say that most of recorded history is lies anyway. I am willing to believe that history is for the most part inaccurate and biased, but what is peculiar to our own age is the abandonment of the idea that history could be truthfully written.
George Orwell
The enemy of the moment always represented absolute evil, and it followed that any past or future agreement with him was impossible.
George Orwell
Early in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper.
George Orwell

George Orwell
History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.
George Orwell
Sanity was statistical. It was merely a question of learning to think as they thought.

George Orwell

George Orwell

George Orwell
How could you communicate with the future? It was impossible. Either the future would resemble the present in which case it would not listen to him, or it would be different from it, and his predicament would be meaningless.
George Orwell
Revolutions only effect a radical improvement when the masses are alert and know how to chuck out their leaders as soon as the latter have done their job.
George Orwell
How right the working classes are in their materialism. How right they are to realize that the belly comes before the soul, not in the scale of values but in point of time!
George Orwell
Sanity is not statistical.
George Orwell
Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.
George Orwell
Man is the only creature that consumes without producing
