1984 ch. 2-3 "There was no reproach either in their faces or in their hearts, only in the knowledge that they must die in order that he might remain alive, and that this was part of the unavoidable order of things." (29)

I chose this quote because I believe that it relates to how people feel about one another in Oceania. It seems to me that the people of Oceania will do anything to save themselves even if it means selling someone else out. That makes me think of how Winston said earlier that the kids would report their own parents since they were so devoted to the Party. Even though the kids did not really know what they were doing, I believe that a characteristic of most citizens of Oceania is that they will betray anyone at any time just to survive because they know the struggles they are up against being ruled by the Party.
