"If there is hope, it lies in the proles.
. . . "Because only there, in those swarming masses, eighty-five percent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could never be overthrown from within . . . But the proles, if only they could become conscious of their own strength, would have no need to conspire. They needed only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to to them to do it."
-- Winston Smith's diary, 1984 by George Orwell.
