Guardian of Truth and SanityBig Brother is the sole guardian of truth and sanity in a world of lies. Big Brother is watching you and brings victory for us all. When men are different from one another and do not live alone. To a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone. From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of double think greetings!
War is peace
We shall conquer our enemies
Eastasia and Eurasia
Ground them to ash
Great Oceana, Great Oceana
Big Brother, bringer of peace
Big Brother bringer of peace
Goldstein, the leader of the rebels, sinister, enchanter, capable by the mere power of his voice wrecking the structure of civilization. A primal traitor, the earliest defiler of the parties purity.
Freedom is slavery
Thinking is a crime
The order of Big Brother is absolute
Goldstein corrupts minds
Brings plague and slavery
Kills our perfect system
Swine, swine, swine!
Treachery, heresy, conspiracy
Down with Goldstein
Down with Goldstein
To the future or to the past, to a time when thought is free. From the age of Big Brother, no answer to your plea. Thought crime does not entail death, thought crime is death.
What makes us a mighty nation?
On with the war
No room for negotiations
Vaporize the rebels
And eliminate the troubles
Down with Goldstein
Enemy of the people
Glory to Big Brother
Who removes all evil
Big Brother is watching you!
War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength!

    One of the most important, and most mentioned, symbols in 1984 is Big Brother himself. For the most part, Big Brother is a symbol of the Party, in its public manifestation. Big Brother is the reason for the Party, he is like the king, or president, except for the small issue that the existence of a king or president can be proved and the existence of Big Brother cannot. One one hand, Big Brother is suggested to be a reassurance to the people, as his name suggests a family member, a benevolent,warm source of love, yet he is also an open threat, one cannot escape him. Big Brother is also a symbol of how little the people actually know about the Party, they do not know how the Party is run, who is in charge of it, or how those officials live. Going back to the fact that the existence of Big Brother cannot be proven, evidence for this is apparent when Winston thinks that Big Brother emerged in the 1960’s, but Party records date his influence back to the 1930’s; O’Brien also makes a comment about Big Brother never dying. An actual human being will die. Eventually, if Big Brother never dies, the existence of the “man upstairs,” begins to be…

    Throughout the years, the death penalty has continued to be an ongoing controversial issue in the United States. While there are many supporters of the death penalty, there is also a great amount of objection. This type of punishment has been around since the eighteenth century in order to assist in a form of a consequence. It continues to be used to discipline those who break the laws and standards that are expected of them, by sentencing them to death. Ever since, it has become the highest level of punishment that can be handed down to someone in the criminal justice system; however, it has also raised many concerns. The process of getting off death…
