“With those children, he thought, that wretched woman must lead a life of terror. Another two years, and they would be watching her day and night for symptoms of unorthodoxy. Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies there were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet this produced in them no tendency whatsoever to rebel against the discipline of the Party and everything connected with it.

George Orwell, “1984”, 1949.
