Warning:
"But always -- do not forget this, Winston -- always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling forever on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face -- forever." -- George Orwell (Eric Arthur Blair, 1903–1950), British author ("1984," Part III, Chapter III)

(May 3) | BP Will Feel Either 'Boot On Throat' Or 'Feet To Fire' By Frank James, May 3, 2010 (NPR) ".. So the administration has embraced the violent imagery of Interior Secretary Ken Salazar who said administration officials would keep their "boot on the throat" of the energy giant to make sure the company does all it can and more to address the problems caused by its uncontrolled ocean gusher." REPORTER: Do you think the President feels like he needs to keep his boot on their throat? Is that the way he's reacting? Quotes source: |
Newspeak is a fictional language in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. The term was also used to discuss Soviet phraseology.[1] In the novel by Orwell, it is described as being "the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year." This suits the totalitarian regime of the Party, whose aim is to make any alternative thinking—"thoughtcrime", or "crimethink" in the newest edition of Newspeak—impossible by removing any words or possible constructs which describe the ideas of freedom, rebellion and so on.
