Winston often faces a dilemma about who he pledges his allegiance to. His rebellious nature tells him to believe in Goldstein and to love him. On the other hand, Winston also finds it hard to rebel due to the power of the Party. This quote exemplifies this conflict inside of Winston. During the two-minute hate, Winston joins the crowd in booing at the screen but he also finds himself thinking about how Goldstein isn’t the bad guy in this society. This shows one side of Winston, the rebellious “you can’t control me” Winston. The other side of Winston is seen when his, “secret loathing of Big Brother turned into adoration.” This side of Winston admires the Party and Big Brother because of the amount of power they wield. Though the party is not…
The quote I have chosen is, “Success consists of going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm”. This is one of Winston Churchill's most well known quotes. This quote was said during his reign as the Prime Minister of Great Britain. It is unknown as to where this quote came from but I found it to be very captivating. I feel like Churchill is trying to get the point across that in life it is normal to not be perfect. Everyone makes mistakes and each failure shapes you as a person. Churchill is saying that if you put your mistakes in the past without changing who you are, it makes you stronger and more successful than someone who fails to do so. Being afraid of failure gets you nowhere in life so Churchill is stating that everyone should strive with great enthusiasm in order to be their best self.…
When I first read 1984, I thought Winston was just some depressed and sexually frustrated old guy. After our class discussion, however, I see that his character actually has some depth in his personality. In 1984 Winston’s ability to rebel against the Party lies in the relationship and loyalty he shares with Julia. In the beginning, Winston is to weak and frightened to revolt against the Party. Furthermore, Winston is emotionally weakened and frustrated because the dark-haired girl he desires seems distant and cold to him. However, when the girl named Julia declares her love for him, their relationship’s fidelity strengthens Winston. Julia helps him towards redeeming himself from his shameful past. In addition to this commitment, Winston is…

In his book Human Rights and Global Diversity, Robert Paul Churchill aims to identify and emphasize the universality of human rights, arguing that “human beings everywhere have the same human right” (Churchill xi). Churchill proposes that cross-cultural negotiations must be implemented to bridge the gap between cultural differences and gain international consensus of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). With respect to valuing the UDHR and promoting universal human rights regardless of culture, the best method of cross-cultural negotiation is the transformational strategy. This method would be the most successful because its broad use of human rights language allows for worldwide communication and participation, thus eliminating…

Winston is human. With no help, mortal or otherwise, and no special characteristics, can readers really expect him to be spectacular?

He is still emulatble and one can learn from his mistakes. He shows readers that not all misfortune can be resolved, and if everyone is expected to be a hero, is anyone…
