1984 (excerpt)
‘Is it your opinion, Winston, that the past has real existence?’ [...] O'Brien smiled
faintly. ‘I will put it more precisely. Does the past exist concretely, in space? Is there
somewhere or other a place, a world of solid objects, where the past is still happening?’
‘Then where does the past exist, if at all?’

‘In records. And — —?’
‘In the mind. In human memories.’
‘In memory. Very well, then. We, the Party, control all records, and we control all
memories. Then we control the past, do we not?’
