War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength…Eric Arthur Blair
AKA George Orwell (from 1984)
It is George Orwell’s birthday today and his words have never rung truer. He would have been 106.
Thanks for the reminder, @tmorello!

It pleases me to see that someone else remembers. Ahh. 1984. A book that changed my life. The images of which will forever be etched into my flesh (ala something Kafka would’ve liked) when I get my half-sleeve. Jealous?
