Quotes by George Orwell:

"War is a way of shattering to pieces, or pouring into the stratosphere, or sinking in the depths of the sea, materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable, and hence, in the long run, too intelligent. "



"Political language - and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists - is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind. "


"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. "

"Speaking the Truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act. "
