More From George Orwell

My feelings are not god. god is god. my feelings do not define truth. god’s word defines truth. my feelings are echoes and responses to what my mind perceives. and sometimes - many times - my feelings are out of sync with the truth. when that happens - and it happens every day in some measure - i try not to bend the truth to justify my imperfect feelings, but rather, i plead with god: purify my perceptions of your truth and transform my feelings so that they are in sync with the truth.

So she had to satisfy herself with the idea of love - loving the loving of things whose existence she didn't care at all about. love itself became the object of her love. she loved herself in love, she loved loving love, as love loves loving, and was able, in that way, to reconcile herself with a world that fell so short of what she would have hoped for. it was not the world that was the great and saving lie, but her willingness to make it beautiful and fair, to live a once-removed life, in a world once-removed from the one in which everyone else seemed to exist.
Love Beautiful Lying
And even if we win, if we win, hah! even if we win! even if we play so far above our heads that our noses bleed for a week to ten days; even if god in heaven above comes down and points his hand at our side of the field; even if every man woman and child held hands together and prayed for us to win, it just wouldn't matter because all the really good looking girls would still go out with the guys from mohawk because they've got all the money! it just doesn't matter if we win or we lose. it just doesn't matter! it just doesn't matter! it just doesn't matter!
