'How can I help it?' he blubbered. 'How can I help seeing what is in front of my eyes? Two and two are four.

Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane.'

George Orwell, 1984

Robbing the File Store

Get some wood rasps, but especially lots of rat-tail files. They're better for the job. And grab some wrecking bars, and oil. They'll think we're after the oil, but we just want those files. Smash the place up good. And hurry up, I'm feeling like my time is near.
