Animal Farm quotes
Page 2 of 3Animals, think of the benefits of a windmill. Yes, it will be hard work to build, but once it's built, it could save us so much labor, that we may have to work only three days a week.
Come on. We should leave while we still can. I'll get the others.
Friends, we must always remember that Old Major died for every one of us. And now, we each have a duty to him. REVOLUTION!
I've no wish to take life. Not even human life.
I... I can work harder.
My friends, I do not think I will be with you for many days more. I've had a long life, and now it is my duty to pass on to you such as I understand of the nature of our lives. Animalkind is born to a miserable, laborious and short existence. We are given only just enough food as will sustain the breath in our bodies for the work we do. And when our usefulness has come to an end, we are slaughtered with hideous cruelty.
My puppies had become Napoleon's servants. Snowball was banished, and Napoleon took control.
No, not Animal Farm. I have decided we should revert to our proper name of Manor Farm.
Now, my friends, I will tell you about the end of my dream. And a song that came to me. It's a song you must learn. It's a song of justice and freedom.
Remove man, and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished forever. Remove man, and the produce of our own labor will be our own. Remove man, and overnight, we will become... free and equal!
Snowball's sabotage is the reason for our shortage of food... but he must have inside help. Which of you is in league with him?! I will find you out! The guilty will have nowhere to hide! Because of this sabotage, the hens will have to surrender their eggs for sale in the market.
The only good human is a dead one.
There are no rewards after death. There is only the here and now. We must work to make this life better.
There will be no more meetings, no more endless debates. From now on, a special committee of pigs will decide all aspects on the farm.
