Quotes 

• [Winston and Julia, naked, are watching the washerwoman] 

  Winston Smith : She's beautiful.

  Julia : She's a meter across the hips, easily.

  Winston Smith : That is her style of beauty. The future is hers. We are the dead.

  Julia : We are the dead.

• Winston Smith : Look, I hate purity. Hate goodness. I don't want virtue to exist anywhere. I want everyone corrupt.

  Julia : Well, I ought to suit you, then. I'm corrupt to the core.

  Winston Smith : Do you like doing this? I don't mean just me...

  Julia : I adore it.

• Winston Smith : [observing the Prole woman from their hideaway]  The future is hers... we are the dead...

  Julia : We are the dead...

  Big Brother : [voice]  YOU ARE THE DEAD!

  [Winston and Julia look around the room, startled] 

  Big Brother : [voice]  Remain EXACTLY where you are! Make NO move until you are ordered!

  [a painting falls from wall, revealing a telescreen] 

  Julia : Now they can see us...

  Big Brother : [voice-over from the still image on the telescreen]  NOW WE CAN SEE YOU! Clasp your hands behind your heads! Stand out in the middle of the room! Stand back to back. Do NOT touch one another!

  Winston Smith : [Winston and Julia immediately comply, and then hear the sound of helicopters approaching]  The house is surrounded...

  Big Brother : [voice]  THE HOUSE IS SURROUNDED!

  Julia : [to Winston]  I suppose we may as well say goodbye...

  Big Brother : [voice]  YOU MAY AS WELL SAY GOODBYE! While we're on the subject, here comes a candle to light you to bed, here comes a chopper to chop off your head!

  [the Thought Police soldiers arrive] 

• Winston Smith : It's not so much staying alive, it's staying human that's important. What counts is that we don't betray each other.

  Julia : If you mean confessing, we're bound to do that. Everybody does. You can't help it.

  Winston Smith : I don't mean confessing. Confessing isn't betrayal. I mean feelings. If they can make me change my feelings. If they can stop me from loving you, that would be real betrayal.

  Julia : They can't do that. It's the one thing they can't do. They can torture you, make you say anything. But they can't make you believe it. They can't get inside you. They can't get to your heart.

• Julia : Look.

  Winston Smith : It's a dream. I want you.

  Julia : Not here. Come back to the woods. It's safer.

• Winston Smith : Our luck can't last. You're young, look normal. You're innocent. If you keep clear of people like me then you might stay alive.

  Julia : What you do, I do. I've thought it out. I'm good at staying alive.

• Winston Smith : Julia, do you think the Resistance is real?

  Julia : No, none of it's real.
