OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE ANTHEM!! ONE OF MY FAVE QUOTES EVARRRR AND I TOTES WON A SCHOLARSHIP ESSAY CONTEST WITH IT!!! >8D

Anyway. *cough* HERE is my fave place to cram for tests in English, but also a page of 5 quotes from Anthem... #5's probably one you're looking for. :)

As for George Orwell, I didn't like 1984 much, but I believe he once said this in an interview or in his book or somewhere: "Who controls the past controls the future, who controls the present controls the past." Meaning you must learn from the past, in order to control your own future. In realtion to 1984, you're supposed to have learned that government should not control all aspects.

Hope that helped a bit. ^^;;

Haven't read any of those. But daaaaaaaamnn, we didn't even get any assignments yet. O.o Crazy, but I'm sorry I'm no help. :/ Hope you find something!

And sorry I haven't called lately. I've been trying to soak up as much time being lazy and watching TV. I won't be able to pull that off for long once school starts -_-. But I really want to call you! I wanted to see you at church tommorrow, but I think we may start going to the 11 o'clock masses. :/ So hopefully I'll be able to call you tommorrow sometime.
