Unconventional Desires Quotes

“The real power is power over men. How does one man assert his power over another, Winston? By making him suffer. Obedience is not enough. Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he is obeying your will and not his own? Power is in inflicting pain and humiliation. Power is tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together in new shapes of your choosing." (Orwell)”
― Victoria Louise Sadler, Unconventional Desires: A diary of discovery... Domination, Submission, Sadism and Masochism
