Quoting 1984

I wanted to talk about this quote for quite some time when reading 1984 but never really got the chance. I found it super intriguing. Because right after O'Brien says this to Winston he takes a turn and says Winston's mind is like his own except more insane. It makes me think about the quote we discussed saying "Reality exists in the human mind and nowhere else." Winston was longing for someone to understand him. It didn't matter if they were a friend or an enemy but as long as they had the same thoughts on what was going in front of them. Reality exists how you see it, yet many of us have the same thoughts. We appeal to certain people in certain ideas.
