Through the novel, Winston hides his newfound thoughtcrime as best as he can, he hides his thoughts from his facial features and the scratching pen from the telescreens. Even as he works in his job, he is collecting and retaining information regarding the lies and truths (if any) from the Party. Winston is essentially a messenger, a messiah, ready to deliver the true word to the people of Oceania, if not for the potential threat of death before he could even utter one word. As Winston progresses he only learns and recalls copious amounts of information and retains what he edits thanks to the simplification of newspeak, and keeps it in the back of his mind to fester and grow into even deeper hate. Collecting this information and recalling it…
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 anyone thinks of the word “disorder” they are likely to think about a war, or some problem that is faced in society today. As shown in Lord of the Flies by William Golding, sometimes the disorder of the world lies within ourselves. In this allegorical novel, William Golding utilized precise details such as physical attributes and personality to represent Hitler and Winston Churchill before, and during World War II through his characters Jack and Piggy. They were not only represented for what they did in the war, but how they were in their early lives as well.…
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 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…

Winston is human. With no help, mortal or otherwise, and no special characteristics, can readers really expect him to be spectacular? Maybe he was not meant to be anyone's savior—maybe he was not hero at all, but that does not make him less admirable. There is admirability in his questioning and in his desire to be happy. 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…

Satan resides in a fiery, dark place away from inhabitants. Usually, fire is depicted as a warm comforted glow in literature. However, the depiction of Hell is seen as intense and unsettling to Satan.…
