A couple of quotes by George Orwell.

In case you don't know about him, he wrote both '1984' and 'Animal Farm', both of which were quite excellent.


"Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."
- from '1984'

"
The Catholic and the Communist are alike in assuming that an opponent cannot be both honest and intelligent. "
