but he left one final warning 1984 is I
believe a quite terrifying masterpiece
so terrifying in fact I don't think I
should like to read another like it I'm
not absolutely dissatisfied with it I
think it's a good idea but the execution
would have been better if I had not been
under the influence of TB when I wrote
it you once claimed that you have an
ability to face unpleasant facts is that
what you demonstrated in 1984 by drawing
an accurate portrait of the future I
think that allowing for the book being
after all a parody something like 1984
could actually happen this is the
direction the world is going in at the
present time in our world there will be
no emotions except fear rage triumph and
self abasement the sex instinct will be
eradicated
we shall abolish the orgasm there will
be no loyalty except loyalty to the
party but always there will be the
intoxication of power always at every
moment there will be the thrill of
victory the sensation of trampling on
enemy who is helpless if you want a
picture of the future imagine a boot
stamping on a human face forever the
moral to be drawn from this dangerous
nightmare situation is a simple one
don't let it happen
it depends on you
