BL Quote of the Day: (somebody sent this to me)

I think it is safe to conclude that the “Time Out” generation did not produce the quality of citizens that the “Ass-Beatin’ ” generation produced.

“If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there in those swarming disregarded masses…could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could not be overthrown from within… If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it…

He wrote: “Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious.”

…But if there was hope, it lay in the proles. You had to cling on to that. When you put it in words it sounded reasonable: it was when you looked at the human beings passing you on the pavement that it became an act of faith.”

— George Orwell, “1984”
