“The totalitarian states can do great things, but there is one thing they cannot do: they cannot give the factory-worker a rifle and tell him to take it home and keep it in his bedroom. That rifle, hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or laborer's cottage, is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there.” GivingStatesHomeJobsCan DoClassDemocracyOne ThingWallGunWorkersGreat ThingsSymbolsFlatsFactoriesBedroomWorking ClassGun ControlRiflesCottagesLaborersHanging OnTotalitarian StateFactory Workers Book:The Complete Works of George Orwell: A patriot after all, 1940-1941 Source: The Complete Works of George Orwell: A patriot after all, 1940-1941
