Additional quotes by George Orwell

ليس هنالك غير أربع طرق لإزاحة فئة حاكمة عن سدة الحكم ، فإما يتم قهرها من قبل عدو خارجي ، أو أن تحكم بطريقة تعوزها الكفاءة وهو ما يدفع الجماهير للثورة ، أو تسمح لمجموعة من الطبقة الوسطى القوية والساخطة بالتشكل والظهور أو تتزعزع ثقتها بذاتها وتفقد الإرادة في الحكم.

Acceptance of the Catholic position implies a certain willingness to see the present injustices of society continue... Individual salvation implies liberty, which is always extended by Catholic writers to include the right to private property. But in the stage of industrial development which we have now reached, the right to private property means the right to exploit and torture millions of one's fellow creatures.
