How to use orwell in a sentence?

1. George Orwell, 1984:

   Until they became conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." (Orwell, "1984")

2. Daniel Hoffman:

   In the Soviet days, the Soviets tried to crack down on news and exercise full control over what people could hear and read, you know, like George Orwell ‘1984’ stuff. But they weren't successful and information got in, books got in, banned information got in, russians are crafty people, and they’ll find a way.

3. Scott C. Holstad:

   no one sees, no one hears cries of despair not very dreamlike; a sense that we’re all robots controlled by psychotic state of mind these days. Orwell wasn’t far off, just a few years.
