“Every Joke is a Tiny Revolution”
George Orwell, An Age Like This: 1920-1940
tags: humor
“In the past every tyranny was sooner or later overthrown, or at least resisted, because of 'human nature', which as a matter of course desired liberty. But we cannot be at all certain that 'human nature' is constant. It may be just as possible to produce a breed of men who do not wish for liberty as to produce a breed of hornless cows.”
George Orwell, An Age Like This: 1920-1940
