<p> Newspeak not only eliminates &#8220;unnecessary&#8221; words, but it also promotes a narrowing of thought and, therefore, awareness. <br />The idea behind Newspeak is that, as language must become <em>less</em> expressive, the mind is more easily controlled. <br />Through his creation and explanation of Newspeak, Orwell warns the reader that a government that creates the language and mandates how it is used can control the minds of its citizens.</p>
<p>Thoughtcrimes are holding unspoken beliefs or doubts that oppose or question a ruling party.</p>
<h2>“If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself.”</h2>
<p>&#8220;BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU&#8221;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">“How do we know that two and two make four?<br /></span><span style="font-size: medium;">Or that the force of gravity works? <br />Or that the past is unchangeable? <br />If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable – what then?”</span></p>
