Book 2 Chapters 3-6???

Quote/Text:
                    When you make love you're using up energy; and afterwards you feel happy and didn't give a damn for anything.They can't bear you to feel like that. They want you to be bursting with energy all the time. All the marching up and down and cheering and waving flags is simply sex gone sour. If you're happy inside yourself, why should you get excited about Big Brother and the Three-Year Plans and the Two Minute Hate and all the rest of their bloody rot? (Pg. 133)


Response
                      Ok. This short excerpt of 1984 seized my attention because it suddenly reminded me of one of the anime's I used to watch. If I'm not mistaken, this short text is something that Naruto would probably say. It's filled with courage, deviance, strength and hatred and honestly, these are the types of things I like reading. It's a basic text and very easy to understand. It's simply been stated after Winston and Julia's sexual experience, breaking the law's of the Party. The Party is extremely prude and basically punishes citizens who have sex without the intention of reproducing and "contributing to the Party". They are also against intimacy. By breaking these rules and risking her life, Julia came out to be one of my favorite characters in this book. Her intelligence, bravery and hatred toward the Party is very similar to mine. Her personality is a little bit weird, but I actually like it. Very sneaky. In essence, this excerpt was important to me because it helped me discover one of my favorite characters in the book. Ultimately helping me get more connected with the book.
