It was a
bright
cold
day in
April,
and the clocks were striking
thirteen
BIG
BROTHER
IS
WATCHING
YOU
The face of a man about
45
with a
heavy
black moustache
and ruggedly
handsome
features
The
hallway
smelt of boiled
cabbage
The
patrols
did not
matter
, however. Only the
thought
police
mattered
WAR IS
PEACE.
FREEDOM IS
SLAVERY. IGNORANCE
IS STRENGTH

Minipax,
Miniluv,
Miniplenty
He did not know with any certainty that is this was
1984
For whom was he writing this
diary?
,
For the
future,
for the
unborn
We shall
meet
in a
place
where there is
no
darkness
Who controls the
past
controls the
future:
who controls the
present
controls the past

is unconsciousness
Winston
woke up with the word
Shakespeare
on his lips
Winston could not
definitely
remember
a time when his country had
not
been at
war
and dropped them into the
memory hole
to be devoured by the
flames
Winston‘s greatest
pleasure
in life was his
work
It’s a
beautiful
thing, the destruction of
words
The
proles
are not
human
beings
The only recognised purpose of
marriage
was to beget
children
for the service of the
party
Desire
was thoughtcrime
If there is
hope,
it lies in the
proles
