More Quotes from George Orwell:
Happiness can exist only in acceptance.George Orwell
Throughout recorded time... there have been three kinds of people in the world, the High, the Middle, and the Low. They have been subdivided in many ways, they have borne countless different names, and their relative numbers, as well as their attitude towards one another, have varied from age to age but the essential structure of society has never altered. Even after enormous upheavals and seemingly irrevocable changes, the same pattern has always reasserted itself, just as a gyroscope will always return to equilibrium, however far it is pushed one way or the other. The aims of these three groups are entirely irreconcilable.
George Orwell
But the thing that I saw in your face No power can disinherit No bomb that ever burst Shatters the crystal spirit.
George Orwell
On the whole, human beings want to be good, but not too good, and not quite all the time.
George Orwell
In our age there is no such thing as 'keeping out of politics.' All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.
George Orwell
He who controls the past commands the future. He who commands the future conquers the past.
George Orwell
