"A story always sounds clear enough at a distance, but the nearer you get to the scene of events the vaguer it becomes."
Quote_1.png
George Orwell

Quote_1.png
George Orwell
"For after all, what is there behind, except money? Money for the right kind of education, money for influential friends, money for leisure and peace of mind, money for trips to Italy. Money writes books, money sells them. Give me not righteousness, O lord, give me money, only money."

Quote_1.png
George Orwell
"What mattered were individual relationships, and a completely helpless gesture, an embrace, a tear, a word spoken to a dying man, could have value in itself.

George Orwell
"We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it."
