Book three chapter 6.... LAST CHAPTER OF BOOK THREE

This chapter was CRAZY! It was really crazy...towards the end! Winston was not being abused, as I said in the other blog for chapter 5. Winston was sitting at a table, playing chess, and drinking gin. Then THEN he saw Julia, the one that was also taken away when they caught them in the same room together. When he saw Julia he could see that she had physically changed. She was really skinny and her face was skinny too. But when they saw each other they just hugged and they didn't kiss. When they sat down they both said that the betrayed each other. After they said that, Julia said "You want it to happen to the other person. You don't give a damn what they suffer. All you care about is yourself." She was saying that because she wanted Winston to feel the pain of something somehow. This is important because when you are in a situation, you just want to get out of it, so you just want them to do it to someone they know.

Another important text that REALLY surprised me was, "He loved Big Brother." This surprised me SO much because Winston NEVER liked Big Brother. He was always against them. I never thought that Winston would give in to what O'Brien said to him while they were abusing him. It really surprised me. Winston really switched up and changed from his own experience. Would you change the way you think because somebody got inside your head? I wouldn't I would just stick to what I believe in. IT'S CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Book three chapter 5

In this chapter, Winston finds out what Room 101 is. O'Brien tells him that it is a very bad room to go too. It's a room where you determine the way you'll die. There's a part of the text that caught my eyes as I was reading I had to go back and highlight it. The quote is "...pain is not always enough. There are occasions when a human being will stand out against pain, even to the point of death."(page 284) This quote caught my eye, because it's really true if you think about it. Think about it. Human beings never have enough pain. We take a lot of pain, physically and mentally. If we had enough pain in our life, would it change our lives? There's so much that you have to think about when you think about pain. Back to the text, pain is part of our lives everyday. In the text it says that human beings WILL stand out against the pain, even if it is to the point of DEATH! Why death? I wouldn't want to die, but then again if I was in a whole lot of pain, I would just want to leave the world, and not be in pain anymore. This quote makes me think a lot.

Book three chapter 4

This chapter was a lot better, not a lot of things bad happened. More good things happened in the chapter. In this chapter, Winston was gaining his weight back, and he was clean because he showered and he finally ate! On page 277, there are three quotes that really caught my attention, not because they were capitalized, but because they have meaning to them. The first one is "FREEDOM IS SLAVERY." This one caught my attention because in the previous chapter, O'Brien pointed out that slavery is freedom. I believe the way O'Brien put it is correct. It's correct because in the past people owned slaves, and when it was abolished, they had freedom to do whatever. There were no more segregation. Another quote that caught my attention was "TWO AND TWO MAKE FIVE." This caught my attention because how does two and two make five? Doesn't two and two make four? I don't know where the leader's brain is when he said this. It's crazy and really weird that they thought that. Two and two make FOUR not FIVE?!?!? One last quote that caught my attention is "GOD IS POWER." This caught my attention because in my eyes, and in my opinion God IS power. God controls everything. He makes things move, like he made animals, humans, the sea, and etc. He made a lot of things for us to live off of. That isn't the last quote that I found interesting there's one more and it says "He accepted everything. The past was alterable. The past never had been altered." What do they mean by this? You can't change the past at all, because it already happened. I mean you can change your future because it hasn't came yet. But your past?! I don't think you can.

Book three chapter 3

This chapter was another intense chapter. There was a lot happening and Winston was still getting shocked if he answered the questions wrong. At the end of the chapter, there was one saying that O'Brien said, and it really caught my attention. The quote can be found on page 274, and he says "Everything is cured sooner or later. In the end we shall shoot you." This quote that O'Brien said caught my attention because it's crazy and how they would shoot him, because he committed one crime, and he didn't even murder or rape Julia. Why would they shoot him? He just loved somebody so much that he made a meeting place for them to go, and made love to each other. Julia and Winston always made time for each other. This shouldn't be crime. But it is in Oceania. Also, before he said that he told Winston that it would be a long while before they shot him, but he would be shot. In my opinion, they shouldn't kill him for love. He didn't steal anything. It's wrong in my opinion. Besides all of that, I believe there was one time where they had death penalty if someone committed a really bad crime. I believe it's still around, it's just not used as often as it was in the past. Winston is like going through a whole thing for death penalty I believe.

Another quote that really caught my attention, was found on page 270. On page 270, O'Brien says "You are the last man, said O'Brien. You are the guardian of the human spirit. You shall see yourself as you are...." Winston told O'Brien that he was human and O'Brien responded with this. Winston is not the last man, because isn't O'Brien also a man? O'Brien believes in whatever the Party has to say. He says that there is no man and when Winston said he was human, he told Winston to take off his clothes and see what the last man looked like... It's freaky and weird. Anyways, the quote can be related to the world now because some people believe that God, or Jesus, will be the last man. God is the guardian of the human spirit, people may believe. If people do not believe that, then they may think that they'll be the last man to ever live on the Earth

O'Brien is playing with Winston's mind. He's telling him one thing , but of course Winston doesn't believe it because he doesn't like the Party. He disobeys the Party. But yeah, this chapter was CRAZY!

Book three: chapter 2

In this chapter , there was a lot going on and I kind of got confused while reading it, but as I kept reading I could somewhat tell what was happening. There are some things that were really scary and I felt bad for Winston because he was being tortured by O'Brien. There was one point in the book that I found very interesting and it's true, in my opinion. This point can be found on page 248 and it says "'Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past,'" This quote stood out to me because when this was said in the beginning of the book, it got me thinking about it. We control if we think about our past, and if we think of the future. Also, we also think of the present and the present that we think about controls the past. We go through a lot of things, to make memories and to make us think about why we said or did what we did that day. The past, present, and future is what every human being thinks about, even if it's scary. Another point that stood out to me what also found on page 248 and it says, "'But how can you stop people remembering things...... It is involuntary. It is outside oneself. How can you control memory? You have not controlled mine!" This stood out to me because O'Brien was telling Winston that the Party controls everyone's memory and they control the thinking of other people. Winston doesn't believe that it's true because it isn't. NO ONE can control what you're thinking and what you believe. It just can't happen. The Party in the book are control freaks. They control EVERYTHING that happens inside the person's mind. It's just crazy, and it really sucks for Winston to live in a dystopia like that.           

Book three: chapter 1

While reading chapter one of book three, I've seen a lot of quotes that made me interested in them or that made me want to highlight them because they were just important to me. One of them that I found interesting and somewhat true was found on page 231 and it says "'Has it ever occurred to you,' he said, 'that the whole history of English poetry has been determined by the fact that the English language lacks rhymes?'" This was very interesting to me because this somewhat relates to what poetry we read now in 2017 in our English classes. A lot of poetry we learn about lack rhymes if they are a specific type of poem and if the author of the poem didn't want to make it rhyme by any means. I can relate this to my personal life because I remember once I had to write a poem, and it had to be Haiku and it didn't rhyme because they aren't supposed too. I also remember that I had to write a Ode about anything, and that one didn't have to rhyme. So with that quote saying that the WHOLE history of English poetry was determined by the fact that the English language lacks rhyme whenever it's presented in anyway. 

Another quote I found very interesting was when one of the Parsons was thrown into jail because of "Thoughtcrime". He explains Thoughtcrime to Winston as this, "It's insidious. It can get hold of you without your even knowing it. Do you know how it got hold of me? In my sleep! Yes, that's a fact. There I was, working away, trying to do my bit -- never knew I had any bad stuff in my mind at all. And then I started talking in my sleep..." This quote caught my attention because Parsons explains how he got Thoughtcrime and that it was bad for him to think in his sleep, and that was making him sleep talk. After he mentions , he tells Winston what he said in his sleep, and he said "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!" In my opinion, that doesn't sound bad since he was always down with Big Brother since it started. His family was always involved with Big Brother and he always followed the rules of the committee. Parsons says that his daughter turned him in , and that he was proud that he did, but when he was talking to Winston it kind of seemed like he wasn't proud of her all at one time. 

Book Two: Chapter 6

On the day that Julia gave Winston a note, before they ever met, there was someone behind him and he never knew who it was. Winston turns around and it was O'Brien. O'Brien talked to Winston about how great his Newspeak was and if he had a interest in it. Winston said he wasn't interested, but O'Brien asked him if he had the 10th edition Newspeak dictionary and Winston told him that they only have the 9th and that it hasn't been released yet to buy. O'Brien gives him his address so he can go by his house and pick up the new dictionary, but little did they know that where they were standing there was a camera looking straight at the paper and saw O'Brien write down his address and give it to Winston. Winston read it and remembered it and then he threw it away into the memory bin. Winston says that when he talks to O'Brien he gets a weird feeling like he's in a grave or standing on a grave.

Book Two: Chapter 5

Winston notices that Syme has vanished. He saw a list of the Chess Committee, and Syme was one of them, and as he was looking nothing was crossed out and Syme was ceased to exist; as in he never existed. The weather was really hot and the rooms kept their regular temperatures. The roads burnt one's feet because of how hot it is outside and the stench of the Tubes was a horror. They were preparing for Hate Week in full swing and the staff of the Ministries were working overtime to get everything ready for Hate Week. A lot of things had to be organized for Hate Week and that was : processions, meetings, military parades, lectures, waxwork displays, film shows, and telescreen programs. They also had to do: stands to be erected, effigies built, slogans coined, songs written, rumors circulated, and photographs faked. Winston had to spend long periods of time everyday going through files of the Times and embellishing news items which are used for speeches. As Hate Week came closer, volunteers had to stitch banners, painting posters, erecting flagstaffs on the roofs, and slinging wires across the street for the reception of streamers. Winston noticed that there was a new poster posted everywhere in London, every space was taken up by the poster and there was a lot more posters than the posters of Big Brother. The poster had a Eurasian soldier on it , and the soldier had no expression on his face.The soldier had a gun in his hand and at whatever angle you were at it always looked like it was pointed at you. A lot of rocket bombs were being set off, a lot more than expected a day. There's been a lot of people that have been killed and they have had tons of funerals that lasted hours. There were adults killed and children. The bombs were aimed at the places with people that go there daily, as Winston said. The room above Charrington's place has been invested with a lot of bugs because of the heat, but there has been no more mice. No matter how dirty or clean the room is, it'll always be Julia and Winston's paradise when they make love. They met seven times in June. Winston has dropped drinking gin at all hours, he lost the need for it. He became fatter, the varicose ulcer has subsided and now it's just a brown stain on his skin above his ankle. His fits of coughing in the early morning stopped, he no longer made faces to the telescreen or shout curses at the top of his voice. Mr. Charrington was very seldom and never went outside. He thought Winston was just another extinct animal. Mr.Charrington had a ghostlike existence between the tiny, dark shop. He would tell a lot of stories that he somewhat remembered or rhymes, but Winston says that talking to him was like listening to the tinkling of a wornout musical box. Winston hopes that Katharine dies so he can marry Julia, or they can commit suicide together, or they can disappear learn to speak Proletarian, get jobs in a factory, and live out their lives undetected in a back street. Julia and Winston would talk about rebelling against the Party. They would talk about how Eastasia was Oceania's enemy and not Eurasia. Julia didn't care about anything dealing with war, or history because she was a rebel. Winston was a rebel, but he kinds of follows the rules of the community.

Book Two: Chapter Four

In the beginning of chapter four, Winston is looking up at the room at Mr.Charrington's shop because that was where Winston and Julia were going to meet. While reading I read that when it was almost the time for them to meet, they saw each other in the streets and Julia told him that she couldn't come. Winston asked why and she simply said that it came earlier than she expected. Winston was furious because he thought that she was cheating on him, but obviously she wasn't because her period just came earlier than expected. Winston came up with the idea that their next "hiding" place should be in the room on top of Mr.Charrington's shop. In the beginning of the chapter, Winston talks about how Mr. Charrington knows what privacy is and that when people want privacy he'll respect it and let them do them. Winston is anxious and inside of his mind he keeps calling himself "folly". He heard Julia come up the steps and he was going in for a hug and a kiss, but she didn't accept it because she wanted to show him what she got. Julia got: real sugar, Inner Party coffee, real tea, real bread, and so much more. Winston wondered where she got the stuff and she said it was all Inner Party stuff, and there was nothing the swines didn't have. Julia then told Winston to turn around for three minutes and Winston looked outside the window and saw the woman singing while putting up clothes. After three minutes past, Julia told him to turn around and he saw that she was wearing cosmetics and when he hugged her, he smelt a scent. After all of that they got naked and did it on the bed. They took a nap afterwards, Winston woke up first but couldn't move because Julia's head was on his arm, then not too later Julia wakes up and starts to get up but sees a rat. When she tells Winston about the rat, he starts to freak out, and has like a flashback about a bad time with a rat, but Julia comforts him with her naked body and then everything starts to become okay. Julia then gets out of bed and puts on her overalls and starts making the coffee but they close the windows so the people won't smell it and so they won't get caught. Julia points out where the rat was, and she remembers the same rhyme that Winston does about St. Clement's Dane. Winston was curious on where she heard it and she says that her grandfather taught it to her and that he vaporized when she was eight.

Book Two: Chapter Three

In chapter three of book two, Winston and Julia meet up and always make love, or have sex with each other. They don't meet up in the same spot they met in for the first time they did it. They met at a church, or a building that used to be a church, but was destroyed by a bomb 30 years earlier. They see each other everyday, almost, and there are times where they would have conversations, or they wouldn't even look at each other because they don't want to get caught. When they were in the old church building once, they would have a full on conversation, and Winston asked how Pornosec was and when he heard that only women worked there, he was really surprised because he thought men worked there. Winston thought men only worked there because men have a high sex drive, or have low control over having sex. They also talked about each others sex life and what it was like for them. Julia had her first love affair when she was 16 and the guy was 60, who later committed suicide because he didn't want to get caught. Winston talked about how Katharine was and how she was always stiff when they touched, or how it felt like she was pushing him away when they were hugging. Julia made a point to where sex uses all your energy but you're happy at the end, and when the community or committee want you to use all your energy for marching up and down the streets and cheering and waving flags and how people get excited about Big Brother and the Three-Year plans and the Two Minutes Hate and the rest of the things the people have to do. Winston tells Julia a story about Katharine and how he almost had sex with her in the woods, or a place like that, and Julia told him that she would've pushed her off the cliff where the different color flowers were. Winston said he would be sorry, but then he said that everyone was dead anyway and it wouldn't make a difference. Julia didn't like that he said that and told him to stop talking about death because he isn't dead yet. Then they choose where to meet the next time and they choose where they first met, which was the woods.

Book Two: chapter 2

Chapter two of book two was very interesting and I learned a lot of things about how it is in their community. Winston and that girl that gave him the note met at the place she told him to meet her at. When he got there they hid behind trees so the microphones wouldn't pick up their voices and so they wouldn't be seen together. When they were behind the tree, the girl was the only one talking but then Winston started talking and in a flash they were making out really hard. They stopped because they weren't going to do the dirty there, because they were scared they were going to get caught by the Thought Police or just by someone. When they stopped they went to a different location and that's when Winston finds out her name. The girl's name is Julia, and they are both the same exact person except Julia is younger and Winston is older. They both don't agree with the whole system and how their lives are in the community. When they talked, Winston whispers in Julia's ear "Now" and they go back to their spot and when they get there, Julia takes off all of her clothes and they lay on the ground and get onto it. The author didn't explain it much , but that's okay. When they were done, they were both sleepy afterwards so they took a nap and when Winston woke up, he covered Julia up with the overalls and watched her sleep on her hand, which was used as the pillow since they were in the woods in a way.

Book Two: Chapter 1

In the first chapter of book two, Winston sees the girl he's seen before with the dark hair in the canteen. While they were in the canteen she fell and fell on her wrist that she broke not too long ago. The girl that Winston is in love with, or likes gives him a note after she fell and he helped her up. Winston went back to work, and when he got back home he waited eight minutes to open the note that the girl gave him. He did his regular routine when he got home, and as soon eight minutes he took the note out of his pocket and opened. When he opened it, the note said "I love you" and at first he couldn't believe what he read, so he re-read it again. When he read it again, he got this feeling inside that he hasn't felt in a while. When he read it he thought that she wanted them to meet somewhere and after that day, he looked for her in the canteen and everywhere he was. A few days past and he didn't see her for awhile, and he started to think that she changed her mind. Then there was one day when he was in the lunch room and she was all by herself in the morning and he was working up the nerve to go sit with her, but that didn't happen because Wilsher was calling his name so Winston can go sit with him. The next time, Winston made sure he got there early so she could sit at the table with her. When he got close to the table , he saw another guy go over there and start talking to her, but that didn't stop him from sitting at the table right across from where she was. When the girl and the guy got done talking, the guy left and the girl turned around and Winston was hoping that she would see him but she got up and left. Winston felt like he was invisible I guess you can say. I forgot to mention what the girl and the guy were talking about and they were talking about them meeting somewhere like the Victory Square, but he couldn't stand close to her. Winston overheard of course because he was right across from them when they were discussing it. Winston got up and left and went where the girl told the other guy to meet her at, and when he got there he spotted her and got as close to her as he could. He said they were touching shoulder to shoulder and her cheek she could kind of feel the warmth from it. They were pretty close you can say as you read. When she noticed how close they were she told them that they can't be that close, which I'm talking about Winston. Once she saw Winston she asked him if he could Sunday afternoon off and of course, Winston said yes. After that, they kind of touched skin and Winston started describing how it felt. As you can see, after that he was happy and he had a reason to keep living.

Chapter 8

In chapter 8, there is a lot that happened and there is a lot of things said from Winston about how some things are in his community. There is one thing that Winston said that really caught my attention and this quote can be found on page 92 if you were curious. On page 92 it says this: "What I'm trying to say is this. You have been alive a very long time; you lived half your life before the Revolution. In 1925, for instance, you were already grown up. Would you say, from what you can remember, that life in 1925 was better than it is now, or worse? If you could choose, would you prefer to live then or now?" This quote caught my attention because if you were already grown up in the 1920's which is before the Revolution, would you live then or would you live now after the revolution. Well, if it was up to me I would live now, because the Revolution is a sad time to be in and a lot of people were in trouble in many ways. Winston on the other hand, still thought about this question because he was actually born before the Revolution and by 1925 he was already grown up. If you were asked this question, what would your response be? Would it then or now?

Chapter 7

While I was reading this chapter, there's some points that really stood out to me and they had a message as I kept reading on. The points that mostly stood out to me is when Winston would write in his diary. There's one diary entry that really stood out to me which was "Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." This really stood out to me because this is true in the real world and not just in book. When people do nasty things, or go to jail for something not so bad they can't be conscious again. In the first line where it says "Until they become conscious they will never rebel.." this is correct because when people are conscious of what they can and cannot do they will not do inappropriate things or things that will get them in trouble. When they rebel they don't know what's right and wrong anymore since they rebelled against a rule or rules. Another diary entry Winston put in his diary was "Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows." If you say that two plus two equals four, then that is freedom according to Winston. Before he wrote this in his diary, on page 80 it says "In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it." If you are forced to believe something it's not freedom but if you believe that two and two make four it's freedom because it's what you believe.

Chapter 6

Chapter 6 was maybe one of the most shocking to me. In this chapter, I discovered that Winston was married and her name was Katharine. I always thought he was just a guy that never found the right girl, but he did before they had to be separated. They were separated because Winston was only with her for sex, which is kind of messed up in my opinion. According to the Party, for people to be married it wasn't just about sex, it was about having children together and for them to not have sexual intercourse. The Party didn't like the idea of married couples to just have sex, they had to have a purpose of being together basically. Winston and his wife have been together for only 15 months and he thought that they were together for 10 or more years. Winston also explained how it was when they were in sexual intercourse and how she would feel like a wooden image. She was always stiff when he touched her.

Chapter 5

As I was reading chapter 5, I found something that caught my eye and I thought about it and it was right. In chapter 5, Syme talks about the dictionary and what kind of words are in it, and how small it will get when life goes on. In the book, they speak "Newspeak" and for them they take something and shorten it as much as it can go, so it makes it easy for five year olds to understand. The piece of text that talks about words and how they are can be found on page 51. As Syme is talking about it he's taking a bite of his bread and swallowed it in mouthfuls. Here is the text that I found so interesting and/or important: "It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. Of course the great wastage is in the verbs and adjectives, but there are hundreds of nouns that can be got rid of as well. It isn't only the synonyms; there are also the antonyms." I found this important and interesting because every word in the dictionary has a synonym and a antonym, or many. It's important to have those though because it gives you different words to use when you are speaking, or writing a paper. Now some words we speak and are found in the dictionary of course and some of them are adjectives, verbs, nouns, adverbs, and etc. Words are labeled like that so we know how to use the words whenever we are writing or speaking.

Character Analysis : Chapter 4

In this character analysis I will tell you the physical characteristics and personality traits of Winston and Parson. Here is what I've found about Winston and Tom Parson:

First we are going to look at Winston. Winston is a guy that has a smallish and frail figure. In the book , you can find this in book one page 2 and it says "He moved over to the window: a smallish, frail figure, the meagerness of his body merely emphasized by the blue overalls which were the uniform of the party." Another physical characteristic of Winston is that he has very fair hair. This characteristic is also found on page 2 of book one and it says "His hair was very fair, his face naturally sanguine, his skin roughened by coarse soap and blunt razor blades and the cold of the winter that had just ended." Another characteristic is that he had a varicose ulcer on his right ankle. This characteristic can be found on page one of book one it says "...and Winston, who was thirty-nine, and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle..."

For Winston's personality, it's found throughout book one chapter one through three. One of the personality traits of Winston is that he was rebellious. He was rebellious by keeping a diary recording what he was thinking. He didn't support Big Brother(bb) and the Party. In his diary, in the first chapter of book one he writes "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER". He thinks about the government a lot and he thinks that they don't tell the truth while they (the government) talk. Winston's job is Ministry of Truth to where he hides the truth and makes sure no one will try to tell the truth. Also in chapter 3, he thought it was weird that no one has heard of Big Brother and the Party until the 1960's.

Lastly, we will talk about Tom Parson and his physical characteristics and his own personality tests. Tom, as said in the book, is a fat and sweaty guy. This physical characteristic can be found on page 22 in chapter 2 of book one and it says "He was a fattish but active man.." Another physical characteristic of Tom Parson is that he isn't that smart. Also found on page 22 in chapter 2 of book one it says "...of paralyzing stupidity...." Tom and his wife are known as dull people, and they are both dull Party members. Tom Parson was also obnoxious.
For Tom's personality he is known as a "good citizen". He's a good citizen because he is fully devoted to Big Brother and the Party. On page 21 of chapter 2 it says "....full-sized poster of Big Brother." What does this tell you about the Parsons? They love the idea of having a Big Brother. It is also known that Tom has a "perfect" family because his children are with the Spies. Also on page 21 it says "On the walls were scarlet banners of the Youth League and the Spies..."

Ways that Winston and Tom Parson are two different people is because Winston doesn't like the Party and Big Brother, but Tom is a devoted person to Big Brother and the Party. Another difference from the two is that Winston doesn't have a "perfect" family, but Tom does. Winston doesn't follow the rules, and that can be found when he keeps a diary of his thoughts and he hides it because he isn't to supposed to have one. Tom Parson follows the rules because he agrees with everything the Party has to say and also he has a "scarlet banner of the Youth League and the Spies..."

Ways that they are similar is that they both have a job at the Ministry of Truth. They both know each other from where they work, and they do the same thing as one another at the job.

Chapter 3

In chapter 3, there was one quote from page 35, where Winston describes, or tells us how "double think" is for them. In the previous chapter, you read that he kept a diary and hid it when he was done. Why did he do that? He did that so he wouldn't be caught if they went into his apartment, or home. "....To know and not to know, to be conscious of complete truthfulness while telling carefully constructed lies, to hold simultaneously two opinions which cancelled out, knowing them to be contradictory and believing in both of them, to use logic against logic, to repudiate morality while laying claim to it, to believe that democracy was impossible and that the Party was the guardian of democracy, to forget whatever it was necessary to forget, then to draw it back into memory again at the moment when it was needed, and then promptly to forget it again, and above all, to apply the same process to the process itself--that was the ultimate subtlety: consciously to induce unconsciousness, and then, once again, to become unconscious of the act of hypnosis you had just performed." Winston explains how the process goes when they are in double think. That is a long process, and way they do things in the double thinking. After he explained the process, or how it is, he says "Even to understand the word 'doublethink' involved the use of doublethink." That sounds really complicated but it's true if you really think about it.

Chapter 2

"To the future or the past, to a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone-to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone:
 From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of double-think--greetings!" This quote was important to me when I read it because it has a meaning to it for Winston. Winston was afraid to write because they aren't allowed to because of the Thought Police. After this quote, Winston was already dead after he wrote his thoughts that came from his brain to the pen. This quote is important because in my opinion, Winston was just letting his mind write what he felt, or what he thought. After he wrote the quote he put "Thoughtcrime does not entail death; thoughtcrime IS death." What he said after he gave his own thought is really scary because he is not allowed to speak his mind and say what he wants to say. The Thoughtcrime is death because if they catch you writing down your thoughts or even saying them you will get killed.

Chapter 1

"theyll shoot me i dont care theyll shoot me in the back of the neck i dont care down with big brother they always shoot you in the back of the neck i dont care down with big brother-" found on page 19. For this quote I found important while reading was that the author's style of words in this piece of text was he was careless about they would do if he did a crime. Also, he was going into hysteria, which is exaggerated or uncontrollable emotion or excitement. After he did it, he was ashamed of what he wrote because before he wrote that he wrote "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER" and he wasn't thinking about anything while he was writing. The tone of this text is absentminded about what they could and would do to him. His choice of words can be better, and some of them are misspelled but you can tell his mood and his tone in his choice of words. I think the author used this style in his work because he wants to show us how he is in the Ministry of Love, or Miniluv.
