"Do you see, Winston, that it is all contained in that single word?"

"We do not merely destroy our enemies, we change them."

"The purpose of power is power."

"You must love Big Brother."

"The Party controls all records, and we control all memory."

"Do you see, Winston, that it is necessary that the Party should have complete control over the people's minds?"
