    Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say of this or that event, it never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death. ... “Who controls the past,” ran the Party slogan,”controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
