quote:

O'Brian: And do you consider yourself a man?

Winston: Yes.

O'Brian: If you are a man, Winston, you are the last man. Your kind is extinct; we are the inheritors. Do you understand that you are alone? You are outside history, you are non-existent.

His manner changed and he said more harshly:

"'And you consider yourself morally superior to us, with our lies and our cruelty?'"

Winston: Yes, I consider myself superior.

"'...You are the last man,' said O'Brien. 'You are the guardian of the human spirit...”

Nice reference.

If you recall, at the beginning of the novel, Winston thought O'Brien was on his side.

"We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness."

Of course our society seems to be evolving more along Huxley's lines than Orwell's.
