Books - 1984 - George Orwell

I just finished book 1 in Haruki Murakami's 1Q84, which according to Diane can also be used as a doorstop if you are not ready to read it, and thought it was time to re-read Nineteen Eighty-Four.

Oh yes, the ministry of truth,
the ministry  of peace,
the ministry of love,
the ministry of plenty,

and newspeak, doublethink, the inner party, the thought police, the Junior Anti Sex League and their red sash emblem, thought crime, being vaporized.

Oh ORWELL, you had it all, on both sides of the coin.
                            War is peace
                                     Freedom is slavery
                                                  Ignorance is strength

This broke-the-mold piece of work has not escaped my memory hole, and "I love you...these words gave him, Winston, the desire to stay alive."
