O'Brien's Speech

O'Brien's speeches were a very important element when creating my groups and my personal timeline. Therefore we included several during the performance. They were an active event for the audience to witness and appreciate and it was a performance that, unlike some scenes, was more personal, as the speeches were aimed at the people listening.

O'Brien's Bunker Speech
My fellow comrades, I will not mock you by telling you not to be scared, as I know you are not threatened by boys trying to play men, which are all these rebel scum are. They will be spreading lies at this very moment, telling you that I am cowering inside his bunker, even that I am begging for my release and negotiating my surrender, yet let this message I send to you now, ring out across Airstrip One- I will never hide, I will never beg and I will never break. Let the rebels know that they will be the ones hiding away in fear, they will be the snivelling criminals begging for forgiveness and that we will break this rebel force piece my piece, bone by bone, thought by thought.

And to all those who are standing against Big Brother, know this. In this world there are people who live according to the rules and teachings of their father big Brother. A family unit that think, speak and do whatever it is they are needed to do, because they are soldiers, warriors, survivors. And then there is you. As useless as the ruins of the war, a bitter reminder of our deluded ancestors. You are cowards, deserters, criminals. And the biggest difference between you and us is that we will live and you won't. your worthless lives burnt into ashes that will scatter in the icy wind and become the dirt for our soldiers to stamp on. You will fail and we will win. You will fall and we will march on. We will survive and you will die.

At this very moment I am joined by my fellow soldiers and it is just a matter of time until we free ourselves from our captors and establish, once again, Big Brother as the leader of all. Join us in our fight my brothers and sisters. Fight the thought criminals, the toy soldiers, the pretenders. Join together and fight for your loving Big Brother. And remember the three foundations our ministry, our country, our world is built on: War Is Peace, Freedom Is Slavery and Ignorance is Strength.
