CITAZIONE

"Years ago - how long was it? Seven years it must be - he had dreamed that he was walking through a pitch-dark room. And someone sitting to one side of him had said as he passed : ''We shall meet in the place where there's no darkness'' . It was said very quietly, almost casually - a statement, not a command. He had walked on without pausing. What was curious was that at the time, in the dream, the words had not made much impression on him. It was only later and by degrees that they had seemed to take on significance. He could not now remember whether it was before or after having the dream that he had seen O'Brien for the first time; nor could he remember when he had first identified the voice as O'Brien's. But any rate the identification existed. It was O'Brien who had spoken to him out of the dark.[...]Winston didn't know what it meant, only that in some way or another it would come true........."
