Julia

• She only questioned the teachings of the party when they in some way touched upon her own life. Often she was ready to accept the offical mythology, simply because the difference between truth and falsehood did not seem important to her.
• "i love you"
• "Always yell with the crowd, thats what I say. Its the only way to be safe."
• The thing that astonished him about her was the courseness of her language
• His heart lept. Scores of times she had done it.
• "Well then, I ought to suit you, dear. I'm corrupt to the bones"
• "I adore it"
• She was also surprisinly adept at speaking without moving her lips
• She had even (an infallable mark of good reputation) been picked out to work on Pornosec
• How many others like her there may be in the younger generation... knowing nothing else, accpeting the party as something unalterable, like the sky, not rebelling against its authority but simply evading it, as a rabbit dodges a dog.
• "Girls are always supposed to be so pure. Here's one who isnt anywauy"
• She could describe the whole process of composing a novel... but she was not interested in the final product
• "Always in the stink of women! How i hate women!"
• With what seemed like a single movement she tore off her clothes and flung them disdainfully aside... with its grace and carelessness it seemed to annihilate a whole culture, a whole system of thought, as though Big Brother and the party and the Thought Police could all be swept into nothingness.
• "I betrayed you" she said boldly
• Any kind of organised revolt against the party, which was bound to be a failure, struck her as stupid. The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same
• "You're only a rebel from the waist downwards"
