"Every human is doomed to die, which is the greatest of all failures. But if he can make complete, utter submission, if he can escape from his identity, if he can merge himself in the Party so that he is the Party, then he is all-powerful and immortal." -1984
這句話的前面還有一句: "Can you understand? That the individual is only a cell? The weariness of the cell is the vigor of the organism. Do you die when you cut your fingernails?" 每個個體只是一個細胞，就算這個細胞衰亡了，細胞的主人依然繁榮。你會因為剪指甲就死掉嗎?

"人都會死，但是如果他們可以服從黨，可以放棄自己的個人身分，成為黨的一份子，那麼他就擁有無限的力量並且是永生的"
"Can you understand? That the individual is only a cell? The weariness of the cell is the vigor of the organism. Do you die when you cut your fingernails?"

The death of the individual is not death. The Party is immortal.
