※ 引述《frameshift (妖孽啊!!!)》之铭言：
刚好最近重看1984
打出原文附上自己乱翻的中文给大家参考一下:)
"In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five,
最後党会宣布二加二等於五，
and you would have to believe it.
而你必须去接受这个论点。
It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later:
这个想法的宣布与时机无关，而是无法避免的结果：
the logic of their position demanded it.
他们所占的位置决定了他们思考的逻辑。
Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence
这并不仅仅归因於他们实务上的经验，
of external reality was tacitly denied by their philosophy.
而是他们的观念直接否定了外显事实的存在。
The heresy of heresies was common sense.
因为意见有所差异而被视为异端自古以来都是不变的事实。
And what was terrifying was not that would kill you for thinking otherwise,
然而最令人发指的并不是他们会因为你持有不同的看法而干掉你。
but that they might be right.
而是他们的说法才是对的。
For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four?"
毕竟，我们怎能确定二加二的确等於四呢？
主角因而觉得：
"Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four."
: 看英国小说一九八四的时候
: 看到了2+2=5喔喔喔XD
: 小说的主角说
: 自由就是能够说2+2=4
: 如果我们一直被政府洗脑 恐怖统治
: 到最後政府说2+2=5
: 我们也不能说2+2=4(呆~)
: 哈..不知道歌和小说有没有相干
: 总之是本蛮有趣的小说
