Top 5 quotes from George Orwell
"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
"Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."
"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face -- forever."
"At 50, everyone has the face he deserves."
Top 5 quotes from Time
"It is only the modern that ever becomes old-fashioned."
"Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils."
"Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him."
"Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity."
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again."
