“Orwell was dealing with communism and his disillusionment with communism in Russia and what he saw the communists do in Spain. His novel was a response to those political situations. Whereas I was interested in more things than the political atmosphere. I was considering the whole social atmosphere: the impact of TV and radio and the lack of education. I could see the coming event of schoolteachers not teaching reading anymore. The less they taught, the more you wouldn't need books.” NeedsBookWholePoliticalReadingSocialSituationNovelSawsTeachingEventsTaughtTvsImpactResponseRadioRussiaCommunismAtmosphereCommunistConsideringSpainDisillusionmentLack Of Education Author:Ray Bradbury

In exercising this power, painting and poetry have a choice of subject almost unlimited.” WorldWayHumanityChoicesImaginationCommonCreativityNovelSubjectsCreationPaintingGeniusExerciseIntellectArtisticAtmosphereRejoiceUnlimitedImaginativeTransformingTransmitConceivingArtistic GeniusPainting And Poetry Book:The Renaissance Source: The Renaissance
