A good contrast of the views of George Orwell (1984) and Aldous Huxley (Brave New World). I had known Orwell's stance but not Huxley's, even though I read BNW in high school. Basically, Orwell thought that what we feared would destroy us, while Huxley said what we loved would destroy us. I guess I'm more of a Huxley person, but if you lived in North Korea and you had the least bit of intellect, you'd probably be more in line with Orwell's opinions.
