George Orwell
“It’s a queer thing, I thought, to be known as ‘Mr So-and-so, the well-known anti-Fascist’. A queer trade, anti-Fascism.”
George Orwell, Coming Up for Air

George Orwell
“It’s queer what an inch or two of fat can do.”
George Orwell, Coming Up for Air

Peter Sloterdijk
“One can define conservatism as the political form of melancholy.
Fluctuating between equanimity and disgust, the conservative watches the activities of those moved by progressive feelings and waits for entropy to do its work.”
Peter Sloterdijk, Foams: Spheres Volume III: Plural Spherology

George Orwell
“I am sentimental about my childhood—not my own particular childhood, but the civilization which I grew up in and which is now, I suppose, just about at its last kick.”
George Orwell, Coming Up for Air

George Orwell
“If you made a list of Hilda’s remarks throughout the day, you’d find three bracketed together at the top—’We can’t afford it’, ‘It’s a great saving’, and ‘I don’t know where the money’s to come from’.”
George Orwell, Coming Up for Air
