George Orwell
- 1984
The old civilizations claimed that they were founded on love or justice. Ours is founded upon hatred. In our world there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement. Everything else we shall destroy - everything.
George Orwell
- 1984
Obedience is not enough. Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he is obeying your will and not his own? Power is in inflicting pain and humiliation. Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.
Corrupted Kingdoms
- Read the heart
Read them like a book, then write in that book. Like shifting the flow of a stream slightly in one direction or another. Each shift infinitesimally small, but with enough of them you can completely change the course of an entire river. Read the heart and you can write its feelings.
