More From George Orwell

The more sincerity is developed, the greater share of truth you will have. and however much sincerity a person may have, there is always a gap to fill, for we live in the midst of falsehood, and we are always apt to be carried away by this world of falsehood. therefore we must never think we are sincere enough, and we must always be on our guard against influences which may carry us away from that sincerity which is the bridge between ourselves and our ideal. no study, no meditation is more helpful than sincerity itself.
Thinking Bridges Meditation
The true value of man is not determined by his possession, supposed or real, of truth, but rather by his sincere exertion to get to the truth. it is not possession of truth by which he extends his powers and in which his ever-growing perfectability is to be found. possession makes one passive, indolent and proud. if god were to hold all truth concealed in his right hand, and in his left only the steady and diligent drive for truth, albeit with the proviso that i would always and forever err in the process, and to offer me the choice, i would with all humility take the left hand.

Sincerity is not a test of truth. we must not make this mistake: he must be right; he's so sincere. because, it is possible to be sincerely wrong. we can only judge truth by truth and sincerity by sincerity.

I've got to stop getting obsessed with human beings and fall in love with a chair. chairs have everything human beings have to offer, and less, which is obviously what i need. less emotional feedback, less warmth, less approval, less patience and less response. the less the merrier. chairs it is. i must furnish my heart with feelings for furniture.

Not less strong than the will to truth must be the will to sincerity. only an age, which can show the courage of sincerity, can possess truth, which works as a spiritual force within it.
Spiritual Strong Age
Never may an act of possession be exercised upon a free being; the exclusive possession of a woman is no less unjust than the possession of slaves; all men are born free, all have equal rights: never should we lose sight of those principles; according to which never may there be granted to one sex the legitimate right to lay monopolizing hands upon the other, and never may one of the sexes, or classes, arbitrarily possess the other.

I've called on congress to repeal the so-called defense of marriage act to help end discrimination to help end discrimination against same-sex couples in this country. now, i want to add we have a duty to uphold existing law, but i believe we must do so in a way that does not exacerbate old divides. and fulfilling this duty in upholding the law in no way lessens my commitment to reversing this law. i've made that clear.
