“ “Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.””
1984 • George Orwell““The older one gets the more convinced one becomes that his Majesty King Chance does three-quarters of the business of this miserable universe.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen“There's no quiet place here on earth for our love, not in the village and not anywhere else, so I picture a grave, deep and narrow, in which we embrace as if clamped together, I bury my face against you, you yours against me, and no one will ever see us.”
The Castle • Franz Kafka“They insist that an author should write in the strictest, purest and noblest language: in short, they expect the Russian language to drop from the clouds, already refined, and that it should come naturally to the lips, so that all they have to do is to open their mouth and stick out their tongue. It goes without saying, of course, that the feminine half of the human species is very wise; but it must be confessed that our respected readers are even wiser.”
Dead Souls • Nikolai Gogol
